Illustrated by Hala Tahboub
5 stars
An absolutely beautiful story about being there for those you care about when they’re grieving.
As different people in his life experience loss, the narrator wants to help them, but they all seem to need different things. The narrator learns there is no one-size-fits-all approach and that just being there for the person can be enough.
A great representation of how different people feel grief differently.
Sweet illustrations that say so much. The stark, white backgrounds really make the artwork pop.
A truly touching book that recognizes there isn’t always just one thing to do when it comes to grief. Instead, listen to the person if they tell you what they need and just be there for them.
