The story behind this book is very real and close to my family's heart. My husband's brother was diagnosed with Non-Hodgkins lymphoma and passed away ten years ago. He was a first-grade teacher and was the person our kids looked up to the most. It was hard for them to understand how someone so healthy and vibrant and full of life could get so sick so fast and then leave them. As we all watched his health decline and his bubbly personality dwindle, our youngest began to ask questions. Our oldest was just mad. It had only been a year since he had lost his grandma. So I began to describe the heart like it was a person that worked hard to keep him with us . Finally, God speaks to the heart, telling it that it is ok to give him up. God would take him home to heaven and make him well again. This explanation was easier for them to grasp and seemed to suffice. And so began the journey to My Favorite Place to Be. My goal for this book is to help other children better understand and cope with losing a loved one. It's always been important to me that my kids know that when someone we love dies, it's not the last time we will ever see them. They take comfort in knowing that we will all be together someday in heaven, everyone's favorite place to be.

Excerpt from The House of Broken Dreams: A MemoryIT was in the morning, towards noontide, when you came. The dawn flushed across a beauteous world where soft airs blew; the breath of violets was everywhere; crystal dewdrops sparkled on the lawn; the birds sang in merry chorus from the bougainvillea outside our window. And it was, oh, how heavenly dear and glad the day!Soft footsteps moved in the shadowy room, kind hands fulfilled their gentle offices, and presently your little lonely cry rang out, the cry of the firstborn.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Leopold is delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. The aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature, and our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. The contents of the vast majority of titles in the Classic Library have been scanned from the original works. To ensure a high quality product, each title has been meticulously hand curated by our staff. This means that we have checked every single page in every title, making it highly unlikely that any material imperfections – such as poor picture quality, blurred or missing text - remain. When our staff observed such imperfections in the original work, these have either been repaired, or the title has been excluded from the Leopold Classic Library catalogue. As part of our on-going commitment to delivering value to the reader, within the book we have also provided you with a link to a website, where you may download a digital version of this work for free. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with a book that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work.
