"A sensitively told meditation on grief, the interconnectedness of the
world, and the necessity of community support after loss." --Publishers
Weekly
"An elegant pairing of words and images gently tackles a difficult
concept." --Kirkus Reviews
Lily loves helping in Grandma's beautiful garden. She and Grandpa help
make sure everything's growing strong.
One day, Grandpa lets her in on a secret: pointing to an ant, he says
that everything is a part of something bigger. One ant is part of a
colony. One rain drop becomes part of the ocean. One star is part of the
universe.
When Lily's Grandma passes away suddenly, Lily struggles to deal with
and understand her grief. She comes to realize that they are all part of
something bigger - a family - and that LOVE is the biggest thing of all.
