This touching tale gently guides children through the complex emotions of grief and loss. While a young girl grapples with the loss of her father, she is confused and sad. Where did he go? What is he doing now? She seeks solace in her grandmother's comforting words that he is always with her as an invisible everlasting presence. Inspired by this newfound understanding, together they draw from happy memories to imagine all the incredible adventures her father might be having. With this knowledge, she finds the strength to live her best life while he continues his own journey.
Through vibrant illustrations and engaging storytelling, What If? encourages children, parents, and caregivers to openly explore their thoughts, beliefs, ideas, and feelings together. By nurturing imagination, empathy, and resilience, young readers will discover that even when we cannot physically see our loved ones, they are always with us.
This book is open to everyone regardless of their religious beliefs or background. After experiencing child loss and grappling with a new reality, it is with hope that this book can offer solace to children in a way they can understand or imagine to bring them some sort of peace.
