Henry and his mom feel Grandpa's love in all his special places: in the rocking chair where he read stories with silly voices, in the cucumbers that always made him hiccup, and in the jewelry box he used to wind up so they could dance. As they remember the many loving moments they shared, they work through their grief.
Remembering Sundays with Grandpa illustrates how even when someone is no longer part of the physical world, their love lives on forever.

What reviewers said
"This is a sweet story that addresses the death of a grandparent and how a child comes to terms with their grief."
"Lauren Kerstein approaches the heavy topic of loss in a light, fresh and child-friendly manner. This book is appropriate for children ages 3 - 8. It can be helpful in addressing any kind of grief, whether it be a grandparent, a friend, a pet, or even a separation as in foster care or adoption. Lauren touches on many important points in dealing with a grieving child that I strongly support and promote as a therapist."
?"This is a beautiful book that directly deals with the pain of loss. The author is a psychotherapist and masterfully opens doorways to impossible conversations and healing both for our littles and for us."
"Remembering Sundays with Grandpa is a heartwarming story about bereavement. Sensitively written, it can help a child work through their grief after the loss of a grandparent or another special person."
