Deep, Thought Provoking, Essential

This books sits on my shelf as a constance reminder of the one I lost. But also as a tool to help my children deal with their grief, as they grow and learn to explore their own feelings.

An Awesome Book

My family adopted a girl from our church whose mom died in a car accident with her in the car.The little girl was having a hard time dealing with the fact that she was alone. This book really helped her deal. I am glad that this book was written.Keep up the good work Joey O'Connor
