The Adventure of Friendship

When parents separate across international borders, it can often times be confusing for the child. Imagination can either run wild or be gently guided towards emotional sense-making. 

Through symbolic story telling, colours, tools and pictures, as dreamed up by children, The Adventure of Friendship communicates to the young child in a way that an ordinary conversation cannot. 

This book is one part of the project series Lovingspace developed by catalysts of change to especially support families that travel around the globe to live and work.

“It’s beautiful to read a story that celebrates diversity at its core. Each human unique in his or her own way, provides the canvas for a family to be just as uniquely colourful in a whole new way. This book is a beautiful tool for young 

inquiring minds to begin a new way of being and accepting. International families can be the seeds to future generations of caring, open-hearted individuals, knowing that what makes a family isn’t always what it looks like.”
