Comments from children: ""I love when Momma Roo gives Ronnie sunshine"" ""My favourite is the invisible kangaroo"" ""Heaven is beautiful not scary"" ""I think Tokens are very special"" ""Can we read the kangaroo book again?"" ""Is Momma Roo with Grandma Sky in heaven?"" ""I have found 'Tokens from Heaven' to be an incredibly valuable resource in my therapeutic work with children experiencing grief and loss. Its gentle storytelling and comforting imagery provide a safe and accessible way for young clients to begin exploring complex emotions. This story book helps children make sense of loss while offering reassurance, hope and a continued sense of connection with those they have lost. It has supported many of my clients in opening up, expressing their feelings, and beginning their healing journey in a way that feels natural to them. As a therapist I highly recommend this story book as a compassionate tool for anyone supporting bereaved children."" - Elizabeth White, Calm and Serene Counselling ""This is a beautiful book with a clear message of reassurance. The illustrations are stunning and the characters are immediately engaging. It is a delight to read and at the same time recognise the importance of the message it contains. The story will appeal to all children who like to read or be read to and will they draw solace from it on a number of levels. I bought this book for two little girls who have recently lost their grandmother. I know it will help them to explore their own feelings. Even more importantly, it will offer the parents a safe starting point for sharing and talking about loss at one place removed."" - Lydia, Nottingham via Amazon ""I am a lead practitioner for children with special educational needs, working predominantly with autistic students. Processing grief for anyone is hard, whatever age/stage in life we are at. What struck me whilst reading the book was the gentle warmth and pathway to heal those initial intense emotions. There is that creation of a feeling of 'hope' for the future and trust, something to hold onto..... at a time when for a person going through that pain it just would feel like chaos!!! The images beautifully illustrate the story and you just can't help yourself loving the 'Roo Family', especially Ronnie: )) This is my second copy of the book (I was fortunate enough to be gifted my first) I shall take one to work but I'm definitely keeping one for myself. It's beautifully written, thought provoking book and without question brings comfort and peace."" - Verified Amazon Customer
