Reach for this book when your child is processing a significant loss or feeling untethered by a change in family structure. Written with the spare, timeless quality of a classic folktale, this story addresses the quiet weight of grief while modeling how to rebuild a life from the ground up. It is a gentle but profound choice for children who need to see that loneliness can be a bridge to new, chosen families. The story follows a young girl who, after the death of her grandmother, must leave her coastal home to survive. As she travels, she encounters others who have been cast aside, eventually weaving together a makeshift family defined by kindness rather than blood. Best suited for ages 9 to 12, it offers a comforting reminder that while we cannot change the past, we can always forge a new path and a new name for ourselves.
