The Angel with the Golden Glow: A Family's Journey Through Loss and Healing
A book for children, yes, but also for special children, and for big adults who have children who are different.  The Angel with the Golden Glow is chosen by God to go to Earth and be born to parents and stay only for a short time.  "You will be born in this special earthly body.  It will not work in the same way that most do."Wide-sized pages with beautiful artwork and tender words create a vivid picture of sadness within an all-encompassing joy.  Elissa Al-Chokhachy writes the way angels fly, and artist Graf paints like they smile.  In love and in plentitude.  For families who have loved and lost.  For children who are born special.  A rich panorama of grief resurrected. "Don't be sad, for there will be a day when we will be together again.  And remember, I'll always love you, whether we are together or apart, one from the other."  --The Book ReaderThere are few books dealing with the death of a child from a cause other than SIDS.... --The Boston Globe, February 13, 2000This comforting story is destined to become a standard in church and hospital gift shops...  --The Napra ReviewThis great book should be in every library....beautifully written and beautifully illustrated with a universal message for all.  --The National Center for Death EducationThis rare book will prove to be an essential gift to readers and deserves a wide distribution. --The World Pastoral Care Center
