I See You series
Children thrive when adults see them and love them for who they are right now. These fun-to-read books provide ways of noticing and affirming how toddlers are growing physically, emotionally, and socially. Each book features a single toddler and takes place over the course of a few hours in a toddler's daily routine, covering themes of emotions, resilience, kindness, curiosity, physical growth, and self-expression.
