Versatile story gives children permission to grieve and helps them find ways to cope with loss

Third grader Jerzie wakes up the day after her birthday feeling sad-all her birthday cheer is gone. Much to her surprise, she ends up having a great day outside with her grandma and her little brother, Josiah, while building Violet, a snowgirl that becomes a pilot, a vet, and even their late granddad throughout the day. But when a warm day makes Violet melt, Jerzie must learn how to cope with her grief.

Suitable for ages 5 to 10 years.
