"With lovingly created illustrations that move between the sepia tones of memory and full color of the child's current life, this book conveys a beautiful depiction of grief. It reminds readers who may be going through similar situations that it's okay to be sad and miss that person. This picture book will be an important tool to facilitate conversations surrounding death and loss. A meaningful take on grief and loss that will fill a hole in many collections." --School Library Journal
