Always Your Stepdad



You're more precious to me than I'd ever have dreamt,
And I promise, I'll always be here.

Whatever you do, wherever you go,
whoever you become,
I'll always be your stepdad.

A love letter from a step-parent to their child.

A heartfelt celebration of the unconditional love between a stepparent and their child, written by Stephanie Stansbie and illustrated by Tatiana Kamshilina.

All those times . . . dressing up, playing cards, watching films,
how I cheered you up when you felt sad.
And that beautiful moment, I'll never forget,
When I truly felt I was your . . . DAD!

This lyrical love letter of a book explores the unique challenges, joys and experiences of becoming a blended family. Designed in a beautiful scrapbook style, this is the perfect gift for a stepparent to give to their child. Just like A Handful of Buttons by Carmen Parets Luque, The Great Big Book of Families by Mary Hoffman and Ros Asquith, and The Perfect Fit by Naomi Jones and James Jones, every type of family will love sharing Always Your Stepdad.
