Description

---

In this moving, hope-filled picture book about loss, love, and family, a little girl grieving the death of her father discovers that she can take the loved ones she’s lost with her on all her future journeys.

Every night, a little girl and her daddy build dreams out of paper, scissors, and glue. Every morning the little girl asks, “Take me with you?” And every time, Daddy tells her they’ll keep building when he gets home from work.

Until one night when Daddy doesn’t come home. When Mommy tells her that Daddy died, the little girl feels confused and sad and even mad. How can she keep building without Daddy? But with some time and help from Mommy, the little girl begins building dreams again and finds a way to take her daddy with her everywhere she goes.

About the Author

---

Lisa Bentley has always been obsessed with reading and drawing. As soon as she was able, she picked up a pencil and began to draw and she’s hardly stopped since. She is a mother to two small people and when she’s not playing with Play-Doh or picking up toys, she devotes the rest of her time to illustrating, writing, and cake designing. She loves spending time with her family, drinking tea, and eating cake and dislikes pairing socks, fishy fish, and slugs in the house. Lisa lives with her partner, two children, and pencil collection in Derby, UK.
