Listen Later

This week hosts Mike Nawrocki and Tricia Goyer talk with author Heather Thompson Day about her new book she wrote with her dauther London, Can I Sit Here? A Story about Feeling Lonely, Being Brave, and Making Friends.

Help kids struggling with loneliness and isolation find the confidence to be brave and make new friends.

Sometimes making new friends can be scary for kids who find themselves struggling to fit in. Author Heather Thompson Day and her daughter, London Marie Day, have written a picture book to come alongside hurting kids and show them that they’re not alone. With God’s help, they can overcome difficult moments and build new friendships.

Can I Sit Here? is a captivating story for children ages 5-8 that follows London’s own experiences of navigating the social challenges of a new school, loneliness, and bullying. This relatable and endearing story will help kids discover their identity in who God says they are.

This picture book includes:

  • Engaging full-color illustrations,
  • Examples to facilitate meaningful conversations between parents and children, and
  • Thought-provoking questions to encourage empathy and foster emotional intelligence.

Teach your child important life lessons about resilience, faith, and the transformative impact of choosing to be a friend!
