Short description

A fantasy fable about dealing with grief

Extended description

From the author: My birth mother died of cancer when I was eleven. I was in my forties before I was able to completely grieve that experience. I wrote this story in the hopes of helping someone else that might be in a similar situation. As I began sharing an early rough draft with friends, it was photocopied and circulated through the hospice community.

What a charming little story this is! A young girl experiences the death of a dear relative. Healing comes through a mysterious elder. As someone who has spent considerable time with terminal illness and grieving families, I found this short work offers a simple and beautiful approach for children dealing with the pain of loss.

This is a wonderful story about dealing with the loss of a loved one, and also would be excellent for latch-key children. Wonderful read!
