A beautiful, lyrical story about loss and growth and how grief can become a comforting friend.

After a little girl loses someone she loves, a new friend appears: Grief. At first, Grief is not who the little girl wants as her shadow. But then Grief journeys with her, sailing through stormy seas . . . and lights the way on an unfamiliar shore. Grief encourages her to do what she needs to: cry and shout . . . or sit in silence. Through it all, her new friend stays with her. And helps her remember.

With tender rhyme, this audiobook by award-winning author Jenny Torres Sanchez personifies the grieving process and reassures those who have lost a loved one that they are never alone.

Praise for Little by Little:

“Torres Sanchez frames grief as a helpful friend instead of something heavy . . . Paired with Musser’s gradually brightening illustrations, the narrative makes clear that hope is always on the horizon. A strong option to help the very young navigate grief.” —Kirkus Reviews

“This thoughtful exploration . . . incorporates relevant vocabulary and experiences that children will recognize. Expressive watercolor illustrations depict the initial turbulence and eventual soothing . . . offering a visual representation of emotions that are sometimes difficult to put into words. Best for young children and their caregivers to read together, this approachable book makes childhood grief visible while encouraging reflection and hope through death and loss.” —School Library Journal
