This looked like a cute read and I was excited after reading the blurb. I do wish it had a bit more explanation as to why Little Bear was having to say goodbye. The rhyme scheme/phrases at times were hard to follow. It was a cute story overall but could be edited to follow a little bit better.

This is a great gift for Mother’s Day and will definitely look at buying it for my daughter when it releases. The illustrations were beautiful and went with the story really well.

This book perfectly describes the love you have for someone, whether it be a child and parent like the bears in this book, or another relationship. The parent in this book tells their child that no matter where they go, they can always find their love in the things around them (like in the breeze and a hooting owl). The illustrations are so incredible that you could hang them up in a nursery, with vivid colors and cozy tones. This would be a lovely book to gift to a child you have a long-distance relationship with or really any loved one.

I really loved this and the whole premise behind it. It was too advanced a concept for my four year old the really understand in a first read but I’ll read it many times with him.

I received an advanced copy from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
It is a soft and heartwarming tale of being apart from our loved ones. Join little bear on their adventures across faraway lands and majestic seas. This picture book shows the ways that Mama Bear is sending her love to her child, who is either sailing or flying high with the sea birds. It's beautiful in the ways that love is always there. With colors that splash on each page, vibrant in its hues. A lovely tale.

This is a very heart warming book. My son misses his grandma often, so this was the perfect book to read with him. It was fun for him to think about all the things he likes to do with his grandma “by his side.” The illustrations are so sweet. Colorful and engaging. This book will definitely become favorite in our house.
