It’s Still OK to Laugh is a comforting picture book for children experiencing grief or loss. Through warm language and tender illustrations, this story helps kids understand that it is okay to cry, and it is also okay to laugh and feel joy again. Feelings can mix together, and that does not mean we loved any less.
Perfect for families, teachers, school counselors, child therapists, and anyone supporting a child through the death of a loved one, a serious illness, or a big loss. This book gently encourages open conversation and emotional expression.
A helpful resource for social emotional learning, grief support groups, hospice and hospital settings, and home libraries.
Love stays. Memories stay. Laughter can stay too.
