Nick and the Grief Dragon: A Tender Story for children about Loss, Grief, and the Love That Stays Forever (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798279445257)

Nick loves his Grandpa, whom he calls "Opa" more than anything. Together, they share many happy moments-until one day, Opa becomes sick and passes away. Nick is sad and struggles to understand the world. How do you cope with such a loss?

One day, Mom gives him a small toy dragon-the Grief Dragon. He becomes Nick's faithful companion through his time of grief. Trauerus listens, reminds Nick of Opa, and helps him express his feelings. And Nick learns: love remains, even when someone is no longer here.

This lovingly illustrated book gently guides children (and adults) through themes of death, farewells, and coping with grief. It leaves big questions-Where is Grandpa now?-intentionally open, so each family can find their own way and meaning.

A book full of warmth, compassion, and hope-a valuable companion for children aged 3 and up, families, educators, and grief counselors.
