Overview

"Today is not a holiday or the first day of school or even my birthday, but it's a special day at my house. We even have it written on our calendar: ""ATTIC DAY."" Every fall, a little boy and his family head up to the attic to clean out things that have been put in storage throughout the year. This year, Attic Day is a painful occasion as the little boy's father passed away months earlier. Together, the little boy and his mother and grandpa face the grief head on and uncover forgotten treasures while sharing stories and memories of their lost loved one. Grief is a difficult emotion for children to process. Attic Day creates a space where kids and their family members can experience and work through their grief in a healthy and meaningful way. By reading this sentimental book, children should be able to better understand loss and manage feelings of sadness while fondly remembering their loved one who is now gone."
