What is Missing Mummy about?
A young child tries to understand what happened after saying goodbye to Mummy. Feelings of sadness, anger, guilt and confusion come and go as the child remembers the times they shared. With gentle honesty, the story shows how grief can affect everyday life, while offering comfort through family, memories and love. Warm illustrations and a simple, child-centred voice make this a sensitive story about loss, remembering someone special and finding ways to carry on.
