KELLY ROWLAND: ALWAYS WITH YOU

Grammy Award–winning artist Kelly Rowland and educator Jessica McKay have crafted a lyrical celebration of working moms everywhere and a soothing story for their children. The story focus on the relationship between a working mother and her young son. As a mother gets ready to go to work, first she works on building a stable environment for her child. Because it can sometimes be hard to be separated during the day, Mom collects some simple words that she and her child can repeat whenever they are missing each other or feeling overwhelmed.

The singer—who previously co-authored Whoa, Baby!: A Guide for New Moms Who Feel Overwhelmed and Freaked Out and Wonder What the #*$& Just Happened —spoke to her excitement about the new children’s book, saying in a news release: “Jessica, Roda and I are thrilled to announce our first children’s picture book which celebrates modern motherhood and all the incredible work that caregivers do.


Rowland says it was "incredibly" important to her to feature Black characters because she didn't grow up with books that featured characters like her or her mom. "Seeing a Black woman on a construction site and creating this world that she makes for others to enjoy, is just incredibly powerful," the author says. "Because kids can think bigger and broader when it comes to occupation.


“Always With You, Always With Me provides much-needed comfort for children whose caregivers work outside the home,” Kelly and Jessica’s loving words instill confidence in kids that they can thrive, no matter the distance from their loved ones.



The book is illustrated by Fanny Liam and published by Viking Children’s Books,  can be found on Amazon and Penguin.
