Alana’s grandmother supports her through her grief and gives her the space to come to terms with her feelings of loss by remembering and celebrating their time together and focusing on the love that they have for each other. This book aims to support parents and children aged 6 to 11 to process difficult feelings that arise when confronted with the loss of a loved one. Parents and guardians can use the story as a tool to support their child in reflecting on what is going on for them, creating a safe space to talk about feelings.
"No one is immune to experiencing loss at some point in life, and for many, our first experience with loss is that of a beloved grandparent. As a parent, you are suddenly thrown into a unique and complex role of grieving your own loss, along with helping your child cope with this new emotional experience.
Love is a Gift is a beautiful way to open those conversations around the difficult process of grieving the loss of someone we love. With magical and soothing art, coupled with very real conversations around the subject, it will be a gift to the well-being of any child who will inevitably experience loss at some point in their lives."
