Very delighted, absolutely thrilled, and quivering with excitement to share that A Guide to Grief has been named an Honor Book Award for the California Reading Association's 2024 Eureka! Excellence in Children's Nonfiction Awards.

This means a lot to me as it means this book is a safe place for grievers. If you’ve got grieving tweens or teens in your life (or you are grieving at whatever age you are) then please consider this book. Or request it at your local library….we’re in 45 libraries as of the date on this post, and are hoping to make it accessible to more folks worldwide.
