Dr. Barry Goodfield first created this book as a series of gifts to his daughter. Each self-illustrated story by this internationally renowned psychotherapist was meant to provide her with understanding and consolation in the face of a loss. In Wisdom Candy book one he helped his daughter Jane Felice to understand why her birth meant so much to her parents. It also explains how her parents dealt with the miscarriage and loss of the infant whose conception had preceded Jane Felice’s own delivery. The story in Wisdom Candy book two helped Jane Felice to accept the death of her grandmother. It also explains some of the values which Barry wished to pass on to his daughter. One of Saint Paul’s epistles names three Divine Gifts: And now faith, hope, and love abide, these three; and the greatest of these is love. Dr. Goodfield strongly retains his own faith, as well as a powerful hopefulness and charity for all of mankind. Doctor Goodfield intended the final story to serve his whole family whenever the stresses or traumas of the day made it difficult to find refuge and recovery in sleep, and in its healing handmaiden of dreams. From the death of the unborn to the loss of the long-loved, these stories and their lessons make palatable, digestible morsels out of the wisdom that comes with maturity and deep insight. His stories make the best possible bedtime stories for children who are coping with grief. Both books include a Bonus Book: A Baad Bedtime Story. A remedial tale for those grieving a loss who are having trouble to sleep.
