My Family Series
Children notice when something is wrong. When they see the adults they love crying, arguing, or struggling but are told, “Nothing is wrong” or “It’s nothing for you to worry about,” they may fill in the blanks themselves—and sometimes decide, I did something. This is my fault.
The My Family Series helps adults include children in difficult conversations in ways they can understand. “We are sad because we won’t see Grandma anymore” gives a child something truthful to hold onto instead of leaving them wondering, What did I do wrong?
These books help families start those conversations together.

Helping Kids Understand Life’s Tough Moments—One Honest, Gentle Story at a Time
Told through the eyes of young children, the My Family books use honest, age-appropriate language to help children understand difficult situations without talking down to them. Each story gives families a gentle way to begin conversations that can otherwise be hard to start.
These books are more than stories—they are tools for connection. They help children ask questions, understand what they are seeing and feeling, and know they are not alone. The story opens the door; the conversation helps the family walk through it together.
I created these books after helping my granddaughter understand grief and loss. I know how difficult it can be to find the right words. The My Family series is my way of helping other families find those words—with heart, care, honesty, and hope.
Perfect for:
These books are just the beginning. There are many more difficult conversations families have with children, and the My Family series will continue helping families find the words to have them
