Quick Summary
Kids hear directly from other kids who understand what it feels like when a parent is sick, and each page shows a different way to work through big emotions like worry, anger, and sadness. The mix of short stories, ideas, and kid-friendly language gives readers a whole toolbox of strategies they can actually use in real life. If your kid likes books that feel like talking to a wise friend who gets it, they'll love this. Perfect for kindergarten through third graders who want to understand their own feelings or support a friend going through a hard time.
