Why read it?

1 author picked A Little Book of Self-Care for Those Who Grieve as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

This was a totally unexpected find at the airport, of all places, but I have read it several times, and I still page through it regularly. Written in bite-sized quotes with lovely illustrations, this book is the perfect companion for someone in grief (with “grief-brain”) who cannot imagine reading an entire book.

It has great, practical, and comforting tips for self-care, for honoring your pain and loss, all while reminding you to find ways to cling to hope, even as you grieve. A beautiful gift for others as well. 

From Aubrey's list on finding hope in loss and grief.
