Dr. MaysoonOne day when Papa Giraffe and Grandpa Griaffe went to the sacred waterhole they did not come home. Baby Giraffe wonders what has happened to her adored Papa. A tragedy has happened. All who live in the woodland are shocked as it unfolds. Families of the waterhole congregation are devastated.
A difficult subject, this is a great book for parents and educators supporting younger children dealing with death and grief - and death and grief in traumatic circumstances ( see authors explanation at end of book).
Delightful illustrations blend with the story making a book that can be read and talked about multiple times.
Whilst this is a moving story of loss and grief it is also about resilience and strength of faith.
