Children’s Books from the Heart
1

Are we there
yet?
“How much longer?”
“Teddy fell on the floor,
and I can’t reach him!”
“I’m thirsty!”
“Hang in there!
Just a little bit longer!”
“You always say
just a little bit longer!”
2

“I don’t want to sit here
anymore!”
3

What’s in Mom’s bag?
“We’re on the highway now.
We can’t stop here.”
“You’ll be able to get out soon,
but first let’s look at what’s
in Mom’s bag.”
“These apples are good!”
“Do you want to play
a word game with me?”
“Let’s take letter K . . .”
4

“Already there?!”
5

In the hustle and
bustle of the city
“This is such a big town!”
“It sure is. It’s the biggest
one we’ve ever been to!
“It’s such a noisy and busy place!”
“Lots of people live here and
plenty of tourists come around too.”
6

“There are at least
a million cars here!”
“I’m afraid to cross the
street!”
7

Let’s go across together!
“What if the drivers
don’t see me?”
“I’ll hold your hand.
The light is green now.”
“Is that park for children?”
“Do you want to go on
the swings for a change?”
8

“A great playground!”
9

All kinds of
wishes
“Let’s visit that
museum first.”
“Then we can
go shopping.”
“There’s a concert in
the park this afternoon.”
10

“There’s lots to see
in the marketplace.”
“All I want is an ice cream!”
11

Something for everyone
“There’s an ice cream shop!
Let’s treat ourselves.”
“I’ll have a chocolate
ice cream!”
“Why don’t we go to the toy museum.
Mom can go shoe shopping
and take her time.”
“And then we’ll drop by
the marketplace.”
“We can look for souvenirs
for Grandma and Grandpa.”
12

“It’s such a nice town!”
13

Let’s go out for
dinner!
“This is a nice place.
We’ll have something
delicious to eat!”
“But all the food
looks strange here!”
“We’ll order something
you like.”
14

“I’m starving!”
“When’s the
food coming?”
“What’s this?”
15

All kinds of treats
“I don’t want to eat this!”
“Let’s make you a tasty
dish of your own!”
“You can try a little bit of everything.
Small fish, happy tomatoes,
crunchy green salad . . .”
16

“And that funny-looking
fruit for dessert!”
“Now my stomach’s full.
That was really good!”
17

What are you
talking about
here?
“Why did we have to come here?”
“These are people whom
Dad knows.”
“What is that lady saying?”
“Why do I have to sit here alone?”
“Hold on a minute!
The grown-ups are trying
to have a little conversation.”
18

“Who’s going to talk with
me?”
19

I want to
hear it too!
“That man asks if you’d
like to play with these.”
“Thanks! So many
building blocks!”
20

“The lady said she has
a daughter your age.”
“What’s her name?”
“Her name is Maria.”
“I could sing a song to
that lady.”

Where will
I sleep?

“It’s been a long day.
We’ll sleep well tonight!”
“Where will I sleep?”
“There’s a guest bed over
there next to the window.
It’s for you.”
“Now let’s wash up
and head to bed!”
“Good night, everybody.”
“I can’t sleep!”
23

Changing things around
“Is the bed
uncomfortable?”
“We can turn on the
little light, if you like.”
“This bed is way too
far from you!”
“Mom and I can move
your bed closer to us.”
“Now I can stroke you,
sweetheart!”
24

“Now I’ll sleep tight!”

DO YOU SEE ME ?
When your family takes a trip, it may feel too
long; the food may taste strange; and the
unfamiliar people may seem scary. A quick
visit to the playground, a little taste of
food served in a fun way, or a word game
on a road trip may be just the thing you
need. Luckily, when staying the night in a
strange place, you can move your rollaway
bed closer to your parents.
Have a wonderful trip, everyone!
