This beautifully, uncomplicated and simply stated book is beyond precious in every way.

As a mom who has lost a child, explaining grief in ways to help my other young son was a difficult process, but this book explains how to encourage those who are grieving in a wonderful way. It truly is a sweet and loving sentiment from any adult to any child. It completely resonates with my life and it will be a permanent addition to our book shelf!

Eight year old Lulu loves her Grandma. But after getting sick with cancer, Grandma can’t go outside and play with Lulu. She has to stay in bed.

Soon, Grandma gets very weak and loses her hair. Lulu and mom visit Grandma every day they can. In school, Lulu learns how encouragement can help people find hope and gain strength. She begins to make and find small gifts of encouragement to help Grandma smile.

Little did she know that Lulu, mom, and grandpa would all need to encourage each other once Grandma was gone.
