About This Book

The picture book Things That Go Away is a playful ode to things that come and go in life—and the one special bond that never fades.
 
There are many things that go away: Leaves fall, tears dry, music lasts only for a few moments, and bubbles pop, vanishing without a trace. Everything in life passes, moves on, or transforms—except one thing that never fades.
 
With her signature warmth, playfulness, and beautiful illustrations, Beatrice Alemagna reminds us that in a changing world, the love between parent and child remains constant.

"Simple, beautiful . . . A readaloud that introduces a rich field of big questions." —Publishers Weekly (Starred Review)

"This wise, creative book will be returned to with anticipation and shared frequently." —School Library Journal (Starred Review)
