Product Description

Synopsis

A story for children who have lost someone they love. Eric is a sand dragon who loves the sea very much. Each day, he watches it going out and coming back. His sea is beautiful indeed to him. But one day, the sea goes out and does not come back. Eric waits and waits, but it does not come back. So he falls on the sand in terrible pain. It feels to him as if he has lost everything. After many bleak days, Eric sees a little wild flower. It is dying. Eric knows he must save it. He finds water. More and more flowers appear and so Eric starts to make a beautiful rock pool garden. And as he does, he finds the courage to feel the full pain of his loss, instead of closing his heart. He realises that his memories of his precious sea are like a special kind of treasure in his mind, a treasure he will never lose.

5.0 out of 5 stars Loss, 25 Oct 2006
Not just for children, this illustrated book has the ability to assist anyone who has suffered loss come to some sort of understanding of their grief. Margot Sunderland has the uncanny knack within her books of exploring with metaphor our hidden anxieties, fears and concerns.

5.0 out of 5 stars So moving, 11 Sep 2009
I have used this book with many teenagers i have counselled. It is extremely beautiful & completely captures the feelings that come with the loss of a loved one. Highly recommended, although i would read it first before using it with a child as it made me cry.
