Shirley Johnson/Senior Reviewer MidWest Book Review
Inside the pages of this heartfelt book, we see how one mom shares the memories of her dad, who now resides in heaven, with her children. Each night following their prayers, she simply says, "Bless Papa in the sky." When the children question her she begins to tell them of their departed grandfather.
I found this book to be very peaceful. The mother shares memories of the grandfather and the love and joy he brought to his family. She then tells them that even though he now is in heaven he is still with them in many ways because he is part of the heavens. He is with them in the stars, the wind, the air and the rain, and that they will see him again. The illustrations are very good bringing the story to life with perfect expressions and color. A great book for anyone, young or old, that wants to remember that although one may pass from this life they are never far away.
