When a family is excitedly awaiting the arrival of a new baby and the unexpected happens, the parents teach their little boy that God is good no matter what happens in our lives.
This book is specifically about going through a stillbirth. This story is sad, but having gone through miscarriage myself, I know that life doesn't always go as you expect. And if there are children that are old enough to understand the loss, this book has a unique way of handling the hard question of why. I appreciated the author's appeal to what children already know to be true about the moon always being there even though sometimes we only see part of it or none of it at all. It is a good illustration that children can grasp and relate to.
If you have gone through deep heartache and are looking for a way to help your kids through it, take a look at this story and see if this would be a way to talk with your kids about the goodness of God in spite of suffering.
My Rating: ★★★★
