I'll Be There

(4) PS Illustrated by Matt Phelan. A mother reassures her son that she'll always be there, even though he can now do for himself things she used to do for him (tie shoes, pick out clothing, read stories, etc.). The text is adultish, but the illustrations should hold children's attention; loosely drawn, evocative watercolors in muted hues show the boy's push-and-pull between comfort and independence.
