Sarah’s Grandma Goes to Heaven
A Book About Grief
by Maribeth Boelts, illustrated by Cheri Bladholm
GoodBookStall Review:
This book is written with love and understanding of the feelings of a child and parents when a Grandparent dies and shows how the remaining grandparent is suffering from the loss, and how all of them can help each other with the healing process. Hopefully reading this book to, or with, a child will deepen the adults and the child’s understanding of death and the Christian message of hope and joy to come. A sensitive telling of how Sarah learns to come to terms with Grandma’s illness and death, and a delightful story to read and share. There is very special help for the adults at the back of the book.
