When a child suffers the loss of a family member or friend, adults often feel powerless to help them heal – especially when the adults themselves are grieving. Now, for adults who wonder, “Is there anything I can do?” Love & Memories gives a grieving child a creative and healthy way to explore and express feelings and questions about bereavement and loss.

This beautifully designed and produced activity book offers a loving way to help kids 4-14 share what they’re experiencing. This process of opening up is important in helping children avoid having repressed feelings cause a lifetime of emotional problems.

Author Susan Weaver is a Certified Grief Recovery Specialist who has used her training to develop structured activities that gently walk young children and “tweens” through their experience with death and loss. Page by page, Love & Memories helps children engage in activities like gathering photos and stories about the person, drawing pictures, remembering favorite expressions, creating a memorial, and even writing a special song for the loved one. As they do, they create a keepsake scrapbook that forever captures their love and memories for this special person and lets them say goodbye so the healing can begin.
