Description

When Ira learns that his best friend Reggie is moving to a new town, he’s braced for the sadness he expects to feel—only to discover that Reggie is surprisingly happy about the change. As Ira tries to understand this difference, the story gently explores how friendship can hold steady even when circumstances shift. With warmth and clarity, the book addresses themes of change, empathy, and the complicated feelings that come with saying goodbye. Bernard Waber’s approachable, emotionally honest style makes this a comforting read for children navigating transitions and learning that goodbyes can be both hard and hopeful.
