The Butterfly Knows Kim Katz

Great-Grandma may not be here, right beside me, but I can feel her in everything I do. When we lose someone special, it is very sad. When a child loses someone special, it is a different kind of sad. Their little lives are filled with so many firsts. Whether it be starting school, learning how to swim or ride a bike, they want all the people who love them to share in their milestones and simple everyday actions. When someone is missing, they don't easily forget. This sweet book will take you through two children's life moments and how they know their great-grandmother (the butterfly) is nearby. Parents may choose this book to help ease the pain of loss, and for children, it's a window into their own world and experiences. May readers feel comfort in believing that their "butterfly knows".
