A family begins healing following a devastating loss… the child has real agency; Sarah effects change in the family dynamic that leads to cathartic healing. The delicate illustrations are expressive and effective. Useful psychologist's tips in the backmatter guide adults in helping children discuss the death of a family member. Gentle, comforting bibliotherapy." —Kirkus Reviews
