Move?! Gregory’s dad gets a new job in a new city and the family prepares to move. Gregory isn’t sure this is a good idea and worries about everything associated with a move: leaving his old friends, meeting new friends, school, a new house, and he hears stories from his friends about life in the city. “Change and uncertainty are a part of life for young children. This book would be good for school counselors, therapists, social workers, and foster parents to have in their toolbox! -Trinity Nicholas, MSW, LICSW

Bobby does a great job showing how the unknown can be better than we thought and our fears can be calmed when we discuss our feelings. -Nick Patella, Former Basketball Coach for West Virginia Wesleyan College and Davis & Elkins College, and father of 3 Whether it’s for his children, as a pastor, stand-up comedian, or podcasting, author Bobby Benavides has found joy in sharing and creating stories.
