[ISLMA-Share] Do you know this picture book?

[Email list for the Illinois School Library Media Association]

Cherie,

This should be a great resource for you as it classifies picture books about death according to specific subjects and gives brief information about each one.

Mat with only one t by Jeff Thomas. Not the book you mentioned but speaks to the same subject.

Hello!  I would like to draw on the collective wisdom of the group.

I have a kindergartener who just lost his grandfather after a hospital stay.  They were close and did a lot together.  The boy's mother is asking for books.

I recall a picture book about a boy and his grandfather and all the activities that they did together.  The boy ended up drawing pictures and putting them up in the hospital room.  I cannot find this book.  I also cannot recall if the grandfather died in the book.  But I believe the drawing pictures helped the boy keep the memories alive.

Can anyone recall this book?  Can anyone recommend any other gentle books for a sensitive little boy?

Thank you in advance for your help,
