When a child loses a parent, finding the right words can feel impossible.
Mommy's Love Never Died helps families begin that conversation with honesty, compassion, and hope. Told through gentle words and comforting illustrations, this story follows three siblings and their father as they learn that sometimes a brain can get very sick, and that sickness can cause someone to die - but love never does. With warmth and sensitivity, Mommy's Love Never Died offers children ages 6-8 a safe way to understand death by suicide and the feelings that follow: sadness, confusion, anger, and love that endures. This book reminds children that: It's okay to ask questions and feel many emotions. Mental illness is not anyone's fault. Even when someone we love dies, their love lives on forever. Beautifully written by Samantha Frost, this story opens a gentle doorway for healing conversations, reminding every child that they are loved, they are safe, and they are never alone.
