Mr Wilson Is My Friend: Let's Talk About Change

Mr Wilson Is My Friend

Book 3 in the Let's Talk About series

What happens when someone you love has to move away?

For one little boy, Mr Wilson is much more than the neighbour next door. He is his friend. And then there is Bob-the funny, energetic dog who has become his very best friend.

They have walks to the park, games in the backyard, dinners together and a special gate between their yards. Life feels just right.

Until one day, the boy discovers that Mr Wilson is moving to the city to be closer to his family.

Suddenly, everything he loves seems to be changing. Will he still be able to see Mr Wilson? What will happen to Bob? And how can he say goodbye to someone who has become such an important part of his life?

As the weeks pass, he discovers that change isn't always easy, and sometimes we have to let go of the things we wish could stay the same. But he also learns that moving away doesn't have to mean losing a friend.

Mr Wilson Is My Friend is a warm and gentle story about friendship, change, moving away, family, saying goodbye and finding ways to stay connected.

Part of the Let's Talk About series, this beautifully illustrated picture book gives young children and the adults who care for them a natural way to begin conversations about some of life's bigger changes.

Perfect for children aged 3-8, and for parents, grandparents and teachers looking for a thoughtful story that helps children understand that even when life changes, the people we care about can still remain an important part of our lives.
