Review Quotes

'Simply and sweetly written in a way that is appropriate for children of all ages. The book recognizes a loss that is not often talked about and does so in a way that honors the baby, as well as the rest of the family. The tips for parents and caregivers at the beginning of the book is a wonderful guide that will help boost their confidence as they read and engage their children in conversation." -Meagan, Child Life Specialist in NICU and Maternity Unit
