Description
Little Bear is feeling sad because his grandmother has gone for ever. He doesn't understand what it means to say goodbye, but he wants to feel better. His mother suggests that asking his friends in the woods might help him understand. As Little Bear talks to his woodland companions, they share their own thoughts on saying goodbye. The swallows tell him about flying to warmer lands, while the leaves of the trees explain how it's a chance to be free and beautiful. Even the moon and sun have their own reasons for saying goodbye. This beautifully illustrated picture book helps young children understand that saying goodbye doesn't mean the end of things. It gently explores the reasons for letting go and offers reassurance that everything will be okay.
