Where Did My Friend Go? is Book 2 of the Adventures with Dillon the Rabbit and the Maplewood Friends series — a children's book that tackles one of the most universal and least talked-about childhood emotions: jealousy.
When Dillon notices his best friend spending time with someone new, he feels confused, left out, and something he doesn't quite have a name for yet. Through his journey across Maplewood, Dillon discovers something that changes everything — friendships don't shrink when new people join. They grow. And a heart big enough to welcome new friends is one of the most powerful things a person — or a rabbit — can have.
This printable Parent Discussion Guide is designed to help parents, caregivers, and educators go deeper with the young readers in their lives — opening meaningful, age-appropriate conversations about jealousy, friendship, emotions, and the abundance mindset that makes relationships thrive.
Created by a children's book author who knows firsthand what it feels like to grow up without the language for big emotions — every question, activity, and tip in this guide was written with one goal: making sure no child has to navigate hard feelings alone.
6 thoughtfully crafted sections:
💛 Understanding Jealousy — 5 discussion questions helping children recognize, name, and normalize jealousy as a completely human emotion. Includes the Name That Feeling activity.
🤝 When Friendships Change — 5 questions exploring how friendships naturally evolve and why change doesn't have to mean loss. Includes the Friendship Circle activity.
💙 Navigating Big Emotions in Friendships — 5 questions teaching children how to process and express the complex feelings that arise in friendships. Includes the Friendship Feelings Toolkit.
🌟 More Friends = More Love — 5 questions designed to shift children from a friendship scarcity mindset to a friendship abundance mindset. Includes the Friendship Jar activity.
🐰 What Would Dillon Do? — 4 real life friendship scenarios that follow Dillon's full emotional arc from jealousy to inclusion, designed for children to practice applying the book's lessons.
✨ Daily Affirmations with Dillon — 7 affirmations about friendship, jealousy, and love — perfect for morning routines or whenever friendship feelings feel big.
Plus:

Thank you for being that person for them. 💛
