Written by two early childhood mental health professionals, I Remember You helps young children address complex emotions about people they may not be able to spend time with.
Children can experience significant losses associated with periodic or permanent absences of people in their lives.

By identifying a variety of feelings they may have over the course of an important relationship, I Remember
You helps children feel less alone. It invites the grown-ups present in their lives to help them consider these losses, identify and validate feelings, and find ways to process emotions.
