Description
The perfect book for opening up honest conversations with young children about grief and death, whether they have lost a loved one, or are simply curious and at the age of asking questions.
When a little girl hears people saying how sorry they are that she's lost her very special grandma, she only has one question . . . where did she go?
Grandma's not under the sofa, behind the flower patch, or even at their favourite spot in the park, so where is she?
Perhaps Mum can help her daughter to understand what has happened and find comfort in the memories left behind.
Written with gentle humour and a lightness of touch by comedian and creator of Griefcast, Cariad Lloyd, and illustrated by Tom Percival, creator of the bestselling Big Bright Feelings series.
