Book Description:
Christopher and Papa are inseparable.
They play games together, go hiking together, and laugh together. But one day Christopher’s mom enters his room with tears in her eyes and bad news to share. Papa has passed away.
Unsure how to move on from this awful news, Christopher spends the day in his room, wishing Papa was by his side. Then with the help of his dog, Sammie, Christopher discovers the Mirror Box. Soon, Christopher realizes that Papa might not be so far away after all.
The Mirror Box is an honest story of one boy’s journey from grief to acceptance. As readers follow Christopher, they’ll experience the hope and peace that comes from this magical, heartwarming gift.
My Review:
My kids are about the same age as Christopher, and they are extremely close to my parents, so I often worry about how they might handle their passing. This book is quite simply a treasure that we will revisit when that time comes so they we can remember the happy times together. The book is different than many that you see out today and that is great. One of my favorite parts of the book was the letter. My kids were so excited to read it!
