## Description

From New York Times bestselling author Todd Parr comes this poignant and reassuring story about loss. With his colorful illustrations, playful humor, and inclusive storytelling, beloved author Todd Parr has long been a favorite among young readers and caregivers. His books promote an essential message of love and acceptance that is inspiring, empowering, and accessible. It’s hard to say goodbye to someone. You might not know what to feel. But you’ll remember that there will always be someone to love you and hold you tight. Through the lens of a pet fish who has lost its companion, The Goodbye Book tells a touching and hopeful story about saying goodbye to someone you love. Addressing the host of emotions children experience, Todd reminds readers that it’s okay not to know all the answers, and that someone will always be there to support them. An invaluable resource for life’s toughest moments. English–Spanish bilingual edition, The Goodbye Book / El libro del adiós , also available for purchase.

Review: Good for young kids. - Good, simple book for young kids about loss and grief.
Review: for a child who lost his mother - Purchased this as a gift for a military child whose mother died unexpectedly. I like that this book is not specific to death, so it could apply when he moves and has to make new friends but for now I'm hoping it helps deal with loss and grief. The book itself is sweet and appropriate for all ages. Some people mentioned that it tells you to "be brave" and encourages kind of unhealthy coping but I disagree. I think it strikes the balance between encouraging and saying "how you feel is okay."

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best grief book on our shelves
*by J***S on February 6, 2023*

During a period of intense grief for my family I made the most depressing order on Amazon and purchased 9 recommended books. This one came out as the best- by far. Todd Parr's simple sentences are accessible to everyone, young children, Teens, and even adults. We appreciated this book so much, it is our go-to gift when a friend is experiencing loss/grief. There is nothing faith based and no promise of Heaven; rather it makes space for a whole range of feelings that people experience after a loss and actionable ways of feeling your feelings (like talking to others and remembering the good times together). This is the type of book you don't want to purchase... but one you should have. (also, if you are reading this review to get the book, I am sorry for your loss)
