Mia's journal offers a gentle invitation to children who are grieving to engage and explore their feelings and experiences. Divided into three simple yet thoughtful sections, the journal offers children a chance to identify and express their feelings, learn coping tools and find peace and hope within their life and grief experience. Especially helpful about this journal is the freedom a child has to select whatever page or activity they feel drawn to that particular day. --Maggie Cochran, LCSW, Hospice Austin bereavement supervisor This incredible journal from Mia Roldan provides cross-cultural and age-appropriate activities that validate the natural feelings of grief and loss children experience. School-age children can use these gentle prompts to identify and reflect on their loss, to acknowledge and normalize their feelings associated with grieving, and to create a toolbox of activities that can be accomplished alone or with others to integrate loss into their young lives. Ms. Roldan lets children know that inner peace is truly possible! --Dede Sparks, LMSW, assistant dean for health affairs, The University of Texas Steve Hicks School of Social Work Hospice & palliative care social worker
