“Daddy, will you live forever?”
​
A question that would freeze any parent in their tracks. I’ll Be With You Wherever You Are, written by Michael Finn and illustrated by Agus Prajogo, takes readers on a journey to answer this beautiful, scary, and heart-breaking question. Through the book’s lyrical poetry and vivid illustrations, we travel along with a father and son, and learn that love between parent and child knows no bounds. It can go to the moon and across the stars, warm itself by the fire, and even play a game of hide-and-seek. The pages within offer comfort and whimsy to the young child reader as well as the adult’s inner child, as it explores the depth of the human experience.
