Millie Finds Her Miracle

Millie, a little girl with a life-threatening illness, searches everywhere for her miracle of healing. From her playground to the hospital, with people around the world praying, Millie ultimately finds her miracle in heaven.

In 2019, when my two-year-old daughter was diagnosed with a life-threatening disease, I had no resources to explain her illness to her. When we were told she would not survive a year later, there were no books on how to explain death to a child in gentle, faith-filled terms. "Millie Finds Her Miracle" is a book that leads readers on Millie's journey as she searches everywhere for her miracle of healing. From her playground to the hospital, with people around the world praying, Millie ultimately finds her miracle in heaven. This book is instrumental to children facing their own death, siblings seeing death, parents walking with their child through death, and the numerous caregivers who assist in the end-of-life process. Very young children will love finding the butterfly hidden on each page and looking at the bright, simple illustrations.

Courtney Mount, a faith-based author and mother, experienced the devastation of losing a child when her youngest daughter received a terminal cancer diagnosis. Courtney has been featured on podcasts, blogs, and as a venue speaker sharing both her daughter's story and her faith in Christ to carry her through loss. She and her husband are parents to eight other children and grandparents to seven. She enjoys rural farm life and home-educating her children. The detailed journal that Courtney kept during her daughter's illness and has continued to update during her grief journey can be found on Facebook at MilliesMiracle2020.
