This is one explanation of what Grief is. The term 'grief' is often complicated, and hard to understand. How do we experience grief? What does grief mean? Is the way I am grieving normal?

Grieving children ‘puddle jump’, moving in and out of their grief very quickly like they’re jumping in and out of puddle. This is normal and means a child is learning to cope with their grief. www.childbereavementuk.org Child Bereavement UK’s materials must not be reproduced or edited without permission, nor used in any way for commercial gain.

The story and illustrations are so beautiful. Even though this story does not speak directly of God and His love it does indirectly and yes God’s love will find you! I love the sparkles Nancy Tillman uses in all her illustrations to represent “love”; it reminds me of God’s love and Holy Spirit. When I read this story so many bible scriptures stood out to me. I hope you enjoy my reading and are blessed. #nancytillmanbooks #whereveryouaremylovewillfindyou #readaloud #childrensbooks #childrensbookillustration #storiesaboutgodsgoodness #storiesaboutgodslove #childrensstoriesaboutgod #storiesaboutgod #christianchildrensbooks #instagramkids #instagramchildren I DO NOT OWN THE RIGHTS TO THIS STORY.
