You Can Sit with Me

You Can Sit with Me is a softhearted picture book that shows how much a day can shift by one person simply reaching out a hand for someone to feel more welcome. If you’re worried because you’re new and you’re not sure what to do, you can sit with me. The simple yet profound gesture of offering someone a place to sit, just as they are, is precisely what some kids need to feel welcomed into a new or overwhelming space. Whether you're at a reading circle, a craft table, or a picnic blanket, it’s always time to demonstrate kindness. Filled with endearing characters created by Tatiana Kamshilina, You Can Sit with Me shows the power of one simple offer to not only make one person’s day better but lead our whole world toward inclusion and love.
