A comforting children's picture book about grief, loss, and remembering someone we love-with a message that resonates with adults, too.
Caitlin's Star helps families begin meaningful conversations about death, share memories, and find comfort in the love that remains.
When Caitlin's grandmother dies, she imagines her grandmother's Special Job among the stars. Through this heartfelt story, readers explore how memory and imagination can help us feel connected to someone we miss.
Although the story centers on a grandmother, its themes can open conversations about the death of a grandfather, parent, sibling, friend, another special person, or a beloved pet.
The book invites children and adults to reflect together. Guided questions, journaling pages, coloring pages, and creative activities offer ways to express feelings, remember special moments, and imagine a loved one's Special Job among the stars.
Caitlin's Star also serves as the foundation for an interactive discussion about grief for adults, offering an opportunity to honor and remember a loved one, share memories, and imagine their Special Job among the stars.
Inside the book:
A heartfelt story about love, grief, and remembrance
Discussion questions to help families begin conversations
Journaling and coloring pages for personal expression
Creative activities that encourage sharing memories
Opportunities for reflection with children, families, and adult groups
A meaningful resource for families, educators, counselors, caregivers, and community groups seeking ways to talk about loss and keep cherished memories alive.
