Compendium: Everywhere, Still

“I miss you and I love you. I know I always will. And even though you aren’t here now, I feel you everywhere, still.”

What do you do with that love when someone isn’t here to give it to? Everywhere, Still is a book about missing someone. It’s a book about loss and grief—whether that loss is permanent or temporary. And it’s a reminder that there is always a way to stay close with the people who are biggest in our hearts, no matter how far across space and time they may be.

Following a young girl on her own journey through loss, these words offer children the language to express emotions they may be experiencing. Read them to a child when a grandparent or loved one has passed, a parent is living or serving abroad, a dear friend has moved away, or a pet is very much missed.
