Gibbs, Camille.

A sky of diamonds : a story for children about loss, grief and hope / Camille Gibbs. - London and Philadelphia : Jessica Kingsley Publishers, 2015. - 48 unnumbered pages; color illustrations; 22 cm.

"When Mia learns that her mother has died, all the colour in her world changes to a dreary grey. She feels guilty, angry, sad and lost (sometimes all at once!), and she doesn't know what to do to feel better. Little by little, with the help of her dad, Mia learns how to cope with her difficult feelings. Together, they remember her mother by creating memory boxes, and they even get rid of anger by crazily sloshing paints and punching holes in newspapers! In the end, Mia finds her own, very special way of coping. When she feels sad or lonely, she looks up to the stars"--Page 4 of cover.
