This is a tender guide to recognising grief, understanding loss and reconciling the ebb and flow of pain - so beautifully done with uplifting illustrations, full of colour and life. The rhyme is comforting but the story doesn't condescend; all in all it's a beautiful peace of work and it should be in every library and book shop, face out.
