GRANDMA'S GONE TO LIVE IN THE STARS is the simple, tender story of the death of a beloved grandmother. But this story is told by Grandma herself as she peacefully says goodbye to her sleeping children and grandchildren and then, in turn, to all the earthly things she has loved and rises to her new home in the stars.This serene and beautiful book is for all children and their families, regardless of religious beliefs. Its assurance that love remains forever will be inexpressibly comforting to both children and adults who grieve.
In the moments after grandmother has passed away, her spirit is at peace as she says goodbye to her sleeping family and her home.
