We have a playgroup friend that my girls (3.5 yo) have known for a couple of years. We see them frequently. This friend will be moving far away in a couple weeks. I was looking for any age appropriate books that discuss a friend moving away. Any suggestions?

TIA!

I don't have any book suggestions, but DD's good friend moved away two years ago. I made a little shutterfly book of pictures of the girls together with their friends, family, teachers and favorite places. I gave my daughter one and I mailed one to our little friend in her new digs. It was much appreciated, and even now my DD still reaches for it.
