Summary

In this moving, hope-filled picture book about loss, love, and family, a little girl grieving the death of her father discovers that she can take the loved ones she’s lost with her on all her future journeys.

Every night, a little girl and her daddy build dreams out of paper, scissors, and glue. Every morning the little girl asks, “Take me with you?” And every time, Daddy tells her they’ll keep building when he gets home from work.

Until one night when Daddy doesn’t come home. When Mommy tells her that Daddy died, the little girl feels confused and sad and even mad. How can she keep building without Daddy? But with some time and help from Mommy, the little girl begins building dreams again and finds a way to take her daddy with her everywhere she goes.
