Every song in this collection was written for someone who existed before this book did - some who are already here, and some who were still to come.
The Love That Never Dies gathers five original lullabies and life-lesson songs, each one written in the voice of a different member of one family, and each one paired with its own gentle picture book. Together, they form a single, sweeping love letter spanning four generations: a great-grandmother, a great-grandfather, a mother, and a father, each singing to the children they love most.
Sweet Little Dove opens the collection as a soft, soothing lullaby written for a first great-granddaughter, a promise made before she ever knew she needed one. Little Hands in Mine follows as a bright, tender song from a young father to his two little girls, full of tea parties, twirling dresses, and little hands held tight through every stage of growing up. Dirty Hands and Dreams That Soar carries a mother's voice, celebrating three wild, wonderful sons and the particular joy of loving children who run fast, play hard, and dream even bigger. Reach for the Sky brings a grandfather's warm, upbeat life lessons - work hard, dream big, stay true to yourself - sung from the seat of an old, familiar truck. And finally, The Love That Never Dies closes the collection with its title song: a grandmother's quiet, aching promise that love doesn't end when a life does. It simply changes shape, and keeps finding new hands to hold.
Each song is illustrated as its own complete picture book experience within the collection, following a recurring visual language: a quiet object - an empty rocking chair, a truck with its headlights still on, two small tutus hanging in moonlight - standing in gently for the children each song was written for, long after the singing has stopped.
This collection was written for four generations of one real family - those already here, and those still to come - but its heart will belong to any family who has ever wanted to put into words the particular, aching, wonderful feeling of loving a child before, during, and long after they grow up.
Written for four generations of my family. Not broken. Built to fly.
