Description

It can be hard to talk about death with children. This book helps children understand that it is good to talk about the person who has passed. By sharing stories and memories with loved ones they can go through the grief journey together. Through discussion and sharing they will learn that they can carry on and honor the person they lost through their own actions in life. Through sadness they can find joy as they embrace what they loved about that person and what they want to continue to do to remember and honor them.

The book is beautifully illustrated with bright water color scene’s using silhouettes so that any child can picture themselves in this book. A white hummingbird represents the spirit as it comforts and consoles the child to learn how to cherish and remember them through love.

Love and hope is the guiding theme through this book to help children deal with their loss and provide hope that someday we will all meet again.
