Up Here - Katie Swanson - Bog

This picture book is a comforting story of how children in Heaven spend their time. Designed for siblings of babies and children in Heaven, this book follows an end-rhyme pattern making it pleasant to read and listen to. The story follows a child as he speaks about what he does, who he sees, and how he feels in Heaven. Illustrated in hand-drawn ethereal watercolor, the story offers comfort and Christian education to families as they grieve the loss of their beloved baby. Both children and adults alike will find solace in the message that 'Up Here' sends.
On each page, there are age-appropriate guiding questions that will spark discussion between adults and children and encourage a healthy conversation about faith, love, and Heaven. This touching story will be a routine for the angels' siblings when they feel sad or unsure of their emotions in grief. It encourages them to realize that their brother or sister is never too far away in the arms of Jesus and that their love will go beyond death.
