Heaven Sent Kisses - Hardcover

by Nanette M. Buchanan (Author)

Ameera King is a precocious five-year-old whose relationship with her grandmother has been altered after her elder was stricken with a terminal health condition.

Going through emotional changes and learning to deal with the loss of her daily companion, Ameera finds comfort in sitting in the large bay window in her home. There she sees a caterpillar who she names Crawley.
The fuzzy friend becomes her solace as Ameera begins to express the thoughts she has about her grandmother, her health, their relationship, and Crawley becoming a butterfly. The transition of the fuzzy caterpillar to a butterfly helps Ameera and her mother embrace the transition of their loved one.
Why Heaven Sent Kisses?
Children have a different understanding of death. Parents don't often have the words or conversation to explain the emotions they may feel and the grief of others.
Heaven Sent Kisses is told through the understanding and voice of a five-year-old as her grandmother moves slowly from a long-term illness to transitioning on.
