Being apart from his mama can be hard, but something unexpected helps Esteban remember that she always comes back. There are so many fun things to do in Mr. Walter's classroom, but Esteban still misses his mama while she's at work. One day, after giving Esteban two kisses and a hug (mwah mwah mmmm), Mama heads out the door and forgets to take her gloves with her. As Esteban keeps the gloves safe, they help him remember something important: it can be hard to be apart from his mama, but she always comes back . . . with two kisses and a hug! This sweet story shows one child's experience with separation anxiety and his recovery from it. The book contains a page of information to help you connect the story to children's experiences, which makes it a great teaching tool for your classroom or child care setting. Age focus: 3 and up. Binding: Hardcover.
