Companion Guides
Each companion guide pairs with a storybook in The Trey Series, giving the adults in a child’s life the language, tools, and confidence to turn reading into connection. Sold separately.
What Is a Companion Guide?

Guidance for parents, foster caregivers, and adoptive families on supporting children through transitions with patience and love.
