Butterflies from Heaven

What happens when you lose a child?  How do you explain death to young children?  How can you keep the memory of your loved ones alive? 


Butterflies from Heaven is a gentle and loving parenting tool that helps parents explain death to young children, come together as a family, and inspire hope for the future.


The book begins with six-year-old Sophia getting ready for her first day back at school after the death of her baby brother.  With the help of her wise grandmother's inspirational story about Butterflies from Heaven, Sophia learns that there is hope after the loss of a loved one and passes on that hope to her family. 


Although written for children, this book heals the hearts of both the young and old. Beautifully illustrated by Italian artist Manuela Soriani, Butterflies from Heaven is visually uplifting as well.
