We're Moving Away, But We'll Be Okay is a children's picture book by Ashley Butler. The story revolves around a family that is getting ready to move to a new home in a different state, far away from everyone they have ever known. The family's young son and daughter become anxious about the move, but their parents reassure them that everything will be fine as long as they stay together. The children spend their last month in their old town, bidding farewell to their friends, schoolmates, and neighbors, and packing up their belongings. Finally, after a month, they board a plane and take one last look at their old home. The story follows their journey as they settle into their new home, make new friends, and start a new life in a different city.

We're Moving Away, But We'll Be Okay is a heartwarming story that encourages children to embrace new changes and find reassurance in the fact that they have a loving family and home wherever they go. Moving to a new place can be overwhelming, but the promise of new adventures, meeting new people, and seeing new sights is also exciting. Ashley Butler perfectly conveys these emotions and presents them in a way that children can easily relate to. The fun rhyming words in the narrative create a rhythmic tone that engages the reader and makes the book enjoyable to read. Additionally, the book has beautiful illustrations with eye-catching, vibrant colors that will appeal to children. The images are clear and perfectly depict the characters’ expressions. This is a must-read for children who fear change because it will give them comfort and reassurance.
