What is Be Back Soon about?

Bibi and Mo love watching swallows return to their lake each summer. But when Bibi has to travel north for work, Mo worries about being apart from his older brother. Bibi reminds him that, just like the swallows, he will cross cities, oceans, grasslands and mountains before coming home again. This gentle, reassuring story explores missing someone you love and finding comfort in nature, with an informative section about the remarkable migration of swallows.
