Something Sweet is a beautiful and touching picture book for 5 to 8 year-olds that handles the difficult theme of death with grace, humor, and honesty.
Lizzie’s never experienced shiva before. When she and her mom arrive at Joshua’s house, Lizzie is determined to cheer up her friend who is mourning the loss of his grandfather.
But Joshua isn’t in the mood for their usual puzzles or magic tricks. He misses his favorite baking partner. As Lizzie participates in the Jewish customs of shiva, she begins to learn a new meaning of friendship. Maybe all Joshua needs right now is someone to listen.
Something Sweet balances themes of processing grief, experiencing another culture, and learning how to be a good friend—and does so with tender care.
