Synopsis

"Even when someone we love is no longer here, their love stays with us-in our hearts, our memories, and every picture we draw."

Bella misses her daddy in quiet moments-in the wind on the swing, in the stars at night, and in the silence of a soft hug. But through her drawings, she finds a way to keep his love close and celebrate the special moments they shared.

I Drew a Picture for You, Daddy is a gentle and beautifully illustrated story about remembering, healing, and the unbreakable bond between a child and someone they love - whether it's a parent, grandparent, or even a beloved pet.

Inspired by a true story and written with care, this book offers comfort to children to help express their feelings of grief in a safe space and is a must-keep for families, educators, and therapists to begin meaningful conversations about love, loss, and hope.

A story filled with heart for any child who has ever loved and missed someone deeply.
