| Submission declined on 5 July 2024 by SafariScribe (talk). This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of books). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia. This submission does not appear to be written in the formal tone expected of an encyclopedia article. Entries should be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources. Please rewrite your submission in a more encyclopedic format. Please make sure to avoid peacock terms that promote the subject.

This is the first book written by Vanessa Bayer. The book is illustrator Rosie Butcher's debut. It covers the difficult topic of severe illness in young people. The book is written for audiences of all ages, especially meant for ages 2-6.[1] It is 32 pages long.[1] The illustrations are warm and the text is simple.[2] Critics have given this book high marks.[2][3]
At age 15, the author was diagnosed with leukemia and drew on her personal experiences to show others how to support those in traumatic situations. She writes tenderly with gentle advice to reassure readers that they are still needed as a friend.[1]
This is a notable children's book as it is rare for Children's Literature to cover the topic of severely ill children.[4] It may also be helpful for children with chronically ill parents.[5]
