In My Heart
In My Heart by Molly Bang (Little, Brown and Company, 2006)
When we’re apart, I miss you.
But when I look inside my heart,
I see you sitting there.
You’re with me everywhere I go!
With a gentle and playful voice and vibrant illustrations, author/illustrator, Molly Bang, reminds parents and children of the connection they share throughout a day even when they are apart.
*Consider pairing this with Georgia Heard’s heart mapping from Awakening the Heart. As she explains in her book, “It’s a poet’s job to know the interior of his or her heart.” She suggests creating a heart map of all the important things, people and places, moments and memories, happy and sad, big and little.
