Under Anna's Umbrella by Amanda Driscoll
When a loved one dies, grief can isolate us as if we're hiding under an umbrella of sadness. This touching and wise story will comfort the readers who need it most.Anna never goes anywhere without her umbrella. Not since the stormy day of her father's funeral. Under her umbrella, she feels safe-safe to be angry and sad. She refuses to put away her umbrella no matter the weather, both outside and in. And then one rainy day she notices a boy getting drenched, and when she invites him under the umbrella with her, things begin to change.
This heartfelt story explores how grief, like an umbrella, protects us, but also blocks light from our lives. However, with time and healing and help from a friend, we can lower our umbrella to see the sun. And maybe even a rainbow.
