Illustrated by
Thea Baker.
Addressing an unnamed person who died, a girl explains how she finds solace in keeping a memory box, "so I won't forget you." The book, which features gentle art with collage elements, is more of a coping manual than an artistic effort, but it might offer comfort to grieving children. Supplemental information for adults to help "children process grief" concludes the book.
