Out to Sea is such a delicate, poignant and beautiful picture book that cleverly portrays how one little girl grieves her Grandma. I loved the metaphor used to show how it can feel like you’ve been swept out to sea - alone and lost. But the story is hopeful, teaching young children that all emotions are valid and necessary and in the end, we are not alone.❤️ A comforting and poetic read.
