About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is grappling with the profound sense of erasure that often follows the sudden loss of a parent. It speaks directly to the feeling of becoming invisible or fading away when a central pillar of your world is gone. Through twelve year old Finn, the story explores the physical and emotional manifestations of grief with a unique, creative lens. While the subject matter is heavy, the book is balanced by Finn's witty voice and his use of art and storytelling as a lifeline. It is a secular, deeply honest, and ultimately hopeful resource for middle grade readers who feel alone in their mourning. You might choose it to validate that grief doesn't just feel like sadness, it feels like losing a piece of yourself.
