Reach for this book when your child is trying to fix everything in the wake of a family tragedy or when a parent's clinical depression makes the home feel quiet and heavy.

It is a compassionate look at how children process loss by taking on adult burdens, wrapped in a story that remains accessible and often funny for readers ages 8 to 12. Parents will appreciate how it validates the frustration of wanting a parent to get better while offering a hopeful path toward healing that doesn't rely solely on the child's efforts.
