“In my heart is where she’ll always be…”The loss of a close loved one is heartbreaking and often confusing for children. “Where Did Nana Go?” is the story of a girl who has just lost her beloved Nana, and the journey she begins through her grief. The girl’s mother helps her to find comfort in recalling happy memories she had with her Nana, and reminds her that her Nana will remain within her heart even though she has died. Reading this relatable story with a grieving child is a helpful way to begin discussions about their own feelings of loss and love. It can easily be incorporated into any type of loss that a child may experience. It also includes a workbook with several ideas to help children deal with grief, such as: * Starting a memory journal (or picture journal for younger children) * Making a photo album of Grandparent and child for the child to have when feeling sad * Recalling fond memories with Grandparents that bring the child joy
