Overview

Luca's world is filled with love, laughter, and the smell of Papa's animal-shaped pancakes. But everything changes one quiet Saturday morning-Papa is gone, taken away because he didn't have ""the right papers."" As Luca struggles to understand where Papa went and why, he must learn how to carry love across the miles. Told with tender emotion and poetic rhythm, When Papa Had to Go is a powerful story of family separation due to immigration, seen through the eyes of a young boy. With support from his Mama, a caring school counselor, and his own brave heart, Luca discovers new ways to stay connected to Papa-even from far away. This deeply moving picture book offers comfort and clarity to children navigating loss, change, or distance. It gently invites readers to talk about hard truths while affirming the unbreakable bond of love that crosses borders, rules, and time. Perfect for children ages 4-9, families, classrooms, and counselors, When Papa Had to Go reminds us all: Love never needs permission. And love never gets deported.
