Still My Mom

Still My Mom - A Story of Love That Never Goes Away

When a child misses their mother - whether through loss, distance, or life changes - the feelings can be confusing and deeply painful. Children often struggle to understand where that love goes when Mom is no longer beside them.

Still My Mom is a gentle children's book about losing a mother and helping kids understand grief, memories, and the love that never disappears.

In this tender picture book, a young boy remembers the warmth and care his mother once gave him - soothing his fears at night, spending quiet afternoons together, and tending the garden she loved so much. Mom adored purple flowers and butterflies, and she showed him how beautiful and meaningful the small things in life can be.

When she is no longer there, the boy begins to notice something unexpected while caring for her garden. In the quiet moments among the flowers and butterflies, he discovers that the love she gave him is still present - in his memories, in the lessons she shared, and in the peaceful places she helped create.

This comforting story helps children:

• understand feelings of grief, loss, or separation
• talk about missing a parent in a gentle way
• remember the love and moments they shared with Mom
• feel reassured that a mother's love remains in their heart

Perfect for families navigating grief, separation, or major life changes, Still My Mom offers a compassionate way to start important conversations and help children feel safe, comforted, and understood.
