Overview

Grandad's Truck is a heartfelt children's novel for ages 10 - 14 that follows twelve-year-old Deuce as he navigates life after the loss of his grandfather. Struggling to understand his emotions, Deuce finds comfort and confusion in the one thing that hasn't changed: his grandad's old pickup truck. Through a series of short, reflective chapters, Deuce experiences the five stages of grief denial, anger, bargaining, sadness, and acceptance each expressed through his evolving relationship with the truck. At first, the truck represents hope that nothing has really changed. Later, it becomes a place for frustration, quiet promises, and deep sorrow. Eventually, it becomes a bridge between memory and healing. As Deuce learns that grief doesn't disappear but transforms, he discovers that love remains present in stories, lessons, and the things we inherit from those we've lost. When he learns that the truck will one day be his, Deuce begins to understand that moving forward doesn't mean leaving his grandfather behind it means carrying him along. Grandad's Truck offers young readers a compassionate, relatable story about loss, resilience, and the enduring bonds that shape who we become. It reassures children that grief is normal, love lasts, and healing happens in its own time.
