Experiencing the loss of a parent is extremely challenging at any age. As a child, it can be overwhelming and difficult to understand how to move on from grief without losing connection with loved ones who have passed on. In this beautifully illustrated and touching story, a young girl, Anne, learns how to deal with loss and grief after her mother dies from cancer. She is left believing that a magic phone booth, a symbolic charm given to her by her mum, will allow her to stay in contact in the future. This book shows us how to move forward toward a meaningful life, while still sharing joys and sorrows with those we have lost.
