The Burst Balloon - Ebook

A gentle digital picture book about grief, loss and keeping precious memories close.

Jack misses Grandpa every day. When the red balloon his mother buys to cheer him up suddenly bursts, the loss feels overwhelming all over again.

With Grandma’s help, Jack begins to understand that although someone we love may no longer be with us physically, the memories, love and moments we shared can still remain.

The Burst Balloon offers a calm, accessible way to begin conversations about bereavement without telling children what they must believe.

Digital edition.
