In a story that will ring true with preschoolers and their caregivers, a young child finds it hard to make transitions--but someone has taught him how to find comfort and closure. Simple watercolor vignettes picture the engaged toddler naming playthings and saying farewell to them each time he has to leave a place or activity: the park, Grandma's, playtime, the bath, and bedtime reading.
