Where Did She Go?

£7.99

This is the perfect book for opening up honest conversations with young children about grief and death, whether they have lost a loved one, or are simply curious and at the age of asking questions. When one little girl’s grandma is nowhere to be seen, and everyone keeps saying how sorry they are that the family have lost her, she makes it her special task to find Grandma and cheer everyone up. But Grandma’s not under the sofa or behind the flower patch, so where has she really gone?

When Yesteryear started flying off our shelves, the majority of us at HOBAF needed to see what the hype was all about - causing an accidental 7 person buddy read!😀
We were surprised to find that our average staff rating was 3.8/5! ⭐
Comment your opinions on Yesteryear and the format you read it
