Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Written by a child.

Written by 9 year old Daisy after the loss of her Dad, in order to help other children with their own grief.

A gentle story of love, loss, and finding light after goodbye.

Whether you're supporting your own child, a friend's family, or working with children professionally - we see you. Grief is hard. And helping children through it is even harder.This book was lovingly written by 9 year-old Daisy Blu Mathison, who lost her daddy, Daley, in a tragic racing accident when she was just 3 years old. Now, Daisy wants to help other children like her - children who are hurting, confused, or don't know how to explain what they feel. So together with her mum, she created this story.

A book from a child who truly understands, for other children walking the same path.

What's it about?>This gentle, beautifully illustrated story follows Hugsy's journey through sadness, memory, friendship and hope - helping children explore big feelings in a soft, safe way.
