When She Flies Away - Paperback

by Rachel Ford (Illustrator), Mariam Bahadori (Author)

This is a story about a young child who experiences the loss of someone very special. He is overwhelmed with grief but is afraid to show it, fearful of how others may respond. However, each caregiver in his life has a similar message; one he wasn't expecting. With their emotional support, he becomes brave enough to express his true feelings and learns how to cope with the loss in healthy ways.

Her clinical experience consisted of providing individual and family therapy to children of all ages, helping them identify, communicate, and express their emotions in healthy and productive ways. She is hopeful that children, parents and caregivers (of all kinds) find this book helpful, while having those tough conversations relating to grief, loss, or death of a loved one.
