When someone we love is no longer with us, the world can feel quieter, heavier and full of questions. Searching for Love follows Squirrel's journey through nature in search of where love goes when Grandma is no longer there. Beautifully illustrated, this story helps children understand that love doesn't disappear, but rather it is all around us; it can be found in snowflakes, feathers and even spikey conkers. A comforting companion for children and the adults who care for them.

“Where do I begin? The language, the illustrations, the story, the depth, it is utterly beautiful. As a Grief coach I highly recommend this beautiful book, not only for children grieving loss through death, but also through disconnection from those they love.”

“Squirrel’s Search for Love is a truly heartwarming and uplifting read. With charming storytelling, beautiful illustrations and a gentle sense of wonder, it takes readers on a meaningful journey that beautifully explores what love really means. The story is engaging and accessible, making it perfect for children while still offering a deeper message that adults will appreciate.”

“I loved this book. It is so refreshing to see such beautiful illustrations when so many children's books now use AI images. The repetitive rhyming makes this a very attractive route for children to think about love and also about loss.”
