Winner of Prima Baby Magazine's Award for Best Children's Book
"We send a lot of books out to bereaved kids, and this will now be one of them." - Shelley Gilbert CEO, Grief Encounter
This gentle and uplifting story is designed to help young children come to terms with losing someone special.
The book follows the story of Bradley Bunny and his grandfather, Grandpa Rabbit.
When Bradley asks Grandpa Rabbit what heaven is like, Grandpa asks Bradley to imagine 'a place in the sky that feels special'. Bradley Bunny imagines a carrot themed funfair in the sky! Grandpa Rabbit says that he imagines a beautiful garden, full of old friends and delicious food.
Either way, when Grandpa Rabbit eventually goes to Heaven, Bradley is secure in the knowledge that that Grandpa will be very happy there.
At the beginning of the story, Grandpa Rabbit had given Bradley a gift. At the end of the story, this gift reappears, and serves as a moving reminder to Bradley that, whilst the grandpa he loves has left, in some way, he will always be with him.
