Marshmallow's Gift Garden: A hopeful story for mommas and siblings suffering pregnancy loss

Book Synopsis: Struggling to explain a pregnancy loss to your child? When a pregnancy ends in miscarriage or stillbirth, it's hard to discuss with your other children. Some kids are too young to understand the concept of pregnancy, making it difficult to explain how someone they were looking forward to will never come.

If you are struggling to talk to your kids about miscarriage, you are not alone. Many parents find navigating the topic with their other kids difficult. While there are many books on how to explain loss to a child, most are too straightforward and will be beyond the grasp of young minds. We have a tale that will help you break the news to your children in a comforting way they'll understand.

Marshmallow's Gift Garden helps grieving mothers discuss the loss of their baby with their other children.

Marshmallow's Gift Garden was written by Julia Brown, mother to a young son who herself has suffered through a miscarriage. The author draws from her struggles and conversations with her young child to create a hopeful story she hopes can help other families in their journey through grief and heartbreak.

This children's picture book is designed to help moms and dads open up the topic of pregnancy loss with their kids. The moral of the story is to give yourself time to grieve, acknowledge your emotions, and move forward in peace.

Marshmallow's Gift Garden is an open-ended book, allowing your kids to ask you questions about the loss, rather than simply giving out explanations.
