MIssing And Missing

Missing and Missing is a heartfelt picture book that follows a pigeon struggling with feelings of guilt after hurting a friend. Through a whimsical journey across the city, the pigeon attempts to “find” the apology it’s lost — only to discover that what’s truly missing is the courage to say “I’m sorry.” With gentle humor, expressive illustrations, and a relatable emotional arc, the story teaches children the value of empathy, taking responsibility, and reconnecting after conflict. It’s a warm, sincere narrative for families navigating early social-emotional growth.
