FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
I’d Still Love Your Company by Mary Shelie Wilson Is Now Available for Digital Readers
The newly released children’s book combines heartfelt storytelling, inviting illustrations, and interactive activities to create a reading experience children can return to again and again.
Silverado, CA – June 17, 2026 — I’d Still Love Your Company, the new children’s book by Mary Shelie Wilson, is now available for families, educators, librarians, and young readers looking for a story with warmth, purpose, and lasting emotional value.
This gentle picture book follows a pig and a friend as they explore what it means to want someone’s company, even when space feels limited. The story’s charm comes from its simplicity: one character wants to welcome a friend, another wonders if there is room, and together they discover that friendship can grow when both sides are willing to make a change.
Written with soft rhyme and a reassuring voice, I’d Still Love Your Company gives children a story they can understand on the surface while offering adults a meaningful way to talk about inclusion, compromise, patience, and care. It is a book about friendship, but it is also about effort — the kind of effort that helps relationships feel safe, thoughtful, and real.
The book’s illustrated world is bright, comforting, and easy for young readers to love. Farmyard scenes, flowers, butterflies, a welcoming little house, and expressive animal characters help create a setting that feels cheerful and familiar. Beyond the story itself, the book includes activity-based elements such as word search, puzzle-style pages, and coloring-inspired illustrations, making it more than a one-time read.
Parents searching for a meaningful bedtime book will find a calm and loving story. Teachers and librarians will find a read-aloud title with discussion value. Gift buyers will find a children’s book that feels personal, wholesome, and memorable. Most importantly, children will find a story that tells them friendship is worth making room for.
“I’d Still Love Your Company gives children a message they can carry with them,” said Mary Shelie Wilson. “It reminds them that kindness can be practical, friendship can be patient, and even small changes can make someone feel welcome.”
The book is especially timely for families and classrooms seeking children’s stories that support social-emotional learning without sounding forced or overly instructional. Its message is clear, but not heavy. Its characters are sweet, but not shallow. Its activities are playful, but connected to the book’s world. Together, these qualities make I’d Still Love Your Company a strong choice for repeated reading and meaningful conversation.
I’d Still Love Your Company is now available through online bookstores, including Amazon and Barnes & Noble.
