Dearest One by Arielle Dance

Dearest One by Arielle Dance

Imagine the words your grandmother might say if she wrote you a letter... Perhaps she would encourage you to embrace the rain, or shine your light for all to see. Perhaps she would remind you to take up space and choose your path, knowing that whichever path you take will be the right one because it’s yours. Perhaps she would tell you you are loved. Perhaps she would start the letter, “Dearest One.” A gorgeous keepsake for a growing child, these inspirational words of wisdom passed down from older generations to the young will help little ones everywhere navigate the joys and sorrows of childhood with positivity, strength, and love.

“This is the love letter I needed to read as a child! Dearest One is the perfect book for readers of any age who long to connect with that cherished loved one they miss so deeplyArielle Dance’s text reminds us to cherish the words of wisdom shared by our ancestors, while Jenny Duke’s illustrations carry us through the adventures we hold tightly in our memories. Dearest One is a must-have on every bookshelf across generations and cultures.”
