Overview

Gold Medal Winner at the 2015 IPPY Awards In Cyparissus there is a little dog who gets lost in a park, a sleeping rabbit, a horse up in the clouds, and a bird setting off on a long, long journey. In Cyparissus there is Irene playing jump rope, George looking up at the sky, Molly who has bad dreams, and Danny carrying a backpack full of T-shirts. In Cyparissus there are four winds and a tree—the tallest tree in the whole city—and it's crying… Helps children cope with the loss of a pet and overcome the grief process learning to confront other losses they have in their life.

A heartening story perfect to explain absence to children, the grief and the necessary task of coping with an event they will inevitably have to overcome throughout their lives. --Sonando Cuentos Beautifully illustrated by the talented Sonja Wimmer, this book takes us into a dreamlike universe, in which the image becomes poetry and gives eternity. This picture book will help readers cope with the loss of a pet and cope with the next grieving process --Apogeo y literatura

As well as being a writer, graphic designer and web designer, blogger and creator of TV formats, she is an enthusiastic supporter of funerary art, believing that "" in order to know a city in any depth, you have to visit its market, its oldest bookshop and its cemetery.""
