Everywhere and All Around by Pimm Van Hest
5.0
EVERYWHERE AND ALL AROUND
Written by Pimm van Hest
Illustrated by Sassafras De Bruyn
Summer 2016; 32 Pages
Genre: grieving, death, families, picture book, children
(I received an ARC from the NETGALLEY in exchange for an honest review.)
★★★★★
This beautifully written and illustrated book is a bit...sad to recommend as it is about a very young girl who has to come to terms with her mother dying. Death is difficult to comprehend as an adult so imagine trying to explain it to a child - and not scare them for life. This book helps, in my opinion, to explain what dying means to young children. When the young girl asks people in her life where her mother is she learns that while she is not here physically she is everywhere and all around.
