Home in a Heartbeat (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798247372721)

Home in a Heartbeat is a tender, reassuring story about love, bravery, and the unbreakable bond between a child and a working parent.

Some mornings, Mom leaves before the sun rises to help people who need her.
Some nights, she comes home tired.

But before she goes, her son listens to her heartbeat - lub dub, lub dub - strong and full of love.

He carries that sound with him through the day.

At school, on the playground, and while he waits, small acts of courage help him feel close to her. Because being brave doesn't mean you aren't scared - it means remembering you're loved.

And even when they're apart, their hearts still beat together.

Perfect for elementary aged children, Home in a Heartbeat gently supports:

• kids with parents who work long or irregular hours
• separation anxiety and school-day worries
• building independence and resilience
• celebrating nurses, healthcare workers, first responders, and all helping professions

With warm, comforting language and vibrant illustrations, this heartfelt picture book is ideal for bedtime reading, back-to-school moments, or any child who misses someone they love during the day.
