1980, Harper
(3) K-3 Illustrated by Stefano Vitale. This gentle book begins with the question of a young girl whose father has been away for a long time: "How do you know if someone far away is loving you?" Her mother explains how to listen inside yourself: "If you listen hard you'll feel someone far away sending love to you." This edition has glowing illustrations and is a welcome addition to the shelf of books dealing with loss and separation.
