When Calabresella Met Fleezo Mimi Marisa Genevieve Colletti

This author has mentored young children through teaching remedial reading to third and fourth graders and found that one question children kept asking was, What happens when someone dies? She created the storyline in this book to address this question in terms that young children can understand. Harkening back to her own grandfather's passing away, she relates how she coped with that loss through a fictional story (although the little dog later on was a real dog). This book is the first in a series of adventures and challenges that this little girl faces after the loss of her grandfather.
