The Loss of a Grandparent to Covid-19, Gramps.

"I wasn’t able to tell him that I loved him!" "Did he think we had abandoned him?" " Am I going to die too, Mommy?" "Where do you think he is now?" "What about you, Mommy, what do you remember about him?" "Gramps" is a short story for children, in the form of a dialogue between a mother and her son, that tenderly and lovingly deals with the loss of a grandfather to Covid-19. For 5 years+. This story, profound and pertinent, helps the reader to deal with key elements relating to the concepts of grief and death: sadness, loneliness, memories, our own mortality etc. It is a useful educational tool for a bereaved child, but also for parents who are looking for support when faced with their children's questions and emotions.
