Balloons for Poppy Madeleine Belle Bauer

Molly is sad because she lost her grandfather. While Molly is sad that she no longer has her Poppy, she learns the power of memories in keeping the spirit of loved ones alive. She overcomes her grief by learning that loved ones live on through memories and honoring the legacy they leave behind. Grief is a process even for children. The stages of grief may look different for children than adults, but it is the same process. Molly teaches us that once you get to acceptance, you can be comforted by the memory of a loved one and capture the power of their legacy.
