A heartwarming journey of love, faith, and discovering that Heaven is closer than we think. Saturday nights at Grandma's house were pure magic. The whole family would gather, aunties, uncles, and cousins, cooking, laughing, and singing together. Grandma's famous rolls were legendary, her potato salad unmatched, and when she sang Precious Lord, Take My Hand on Sunday mornings, the whole church felt blessed.
For young Kathy, life revolved around these precious moments with Grandma at Holy City AME Church, until one Sunday when everything changed forever.
When the ambulance comes and the grown-ups start crying, Kathy hears words that don't make sense: Grandma went to Heaven. But Kathy isn't ready to say goodbye. If Grandma went to Heaven, then Kathy will simply go there too! After all, Heaven can't be more than fifteen or twenty minutes away, right? That's how long it took to get from church to the hospital.
Armed with determination, her favorite teddy bear, and a suitcase full of hope, Kathy announces her plan: she's going to Heaven to see Grandma. What follows is an unforgettable journey with her Dad, Pastor Robinson, and friends who have also lost loved ones, a journey that leads them back to Holy City AME Church and to a beautiful truth about love that never dies.
Kathy's Grandma goes to Heaven is a tender, faith-filled story that:
-Helps children understand death and grief with warmth and honesty
-Celebrates African American family traditions and church community
-Shows how memories keep our loved ones alive in our hearts
-Offers comfort to families navigating loss together
-Demonstrates the power of faith, hope, and unconditional love
Perfect for:
-Parents having difficult conversations about death with their children
-Families who have lost a grandparent or loved one
-Sunday school classes and faith-based education
-Anyone seeking a gentle, age-appropriate book about grief and Heaven
-Celebrating the special bond between grandchildren and grandparents
Through Kathy's innocent eyes and determined spirit, young readers will discover that while we can't physically travel to Heaven, those we love remain with us always, in every cherished recipe, every familiar song, and every loving memory that makes us smile.
A story that brings comfort, sparks important conversations, and reminds us all that love transcends even Heaven itself.
