When a young boy loses his mother, an invisible dragon swoops in and perches on top of his head. A most unwelcome guest, the dragon follows him to school, sleeps on his chest at night (making it hard for him to breathe), and even crashes his birthday party. As the boy comes to terms with his mother’s death, however, his relationship with the dragon changes in surprising ways. My Big, Dumb, Invisible Dragon is a story for children dealing with loss, particularly the death of a parent. Although grief is a heavy topic, Angie Lucas and Birgitta Sif handle it deftly for children, using the metaphor of the dragon, a light tone, and touches of humor. The book shows that healing takes time and that it’s OK to experience a wide range of emotions as you process a really big loss.

Als Henriette ihr Heim für Katzen eröffnet, kommen schon bald auf leisen Pfoten die ersten Gäste. Sie haben Angst vor Vögeln und Mäusen, sie wissen nicht, wie man auf Bäume klettert (und vor allem nicht, wie man wieder herunterkommt...), sie schnurren und springen nicht. Henriette bringt ihnen alles bei, was eine mutige Katze wissen muss. Wie gut, denn bald braucht sie dringend Hilfe von ihren vierbeinigen Freunden. Ein ermutigendes und warmherziges Bilderbuch für schüchterne Vier- und Zweibeiner, in dem es viel zu entdecken gibt.

Ett möte med en ännu yngre flicka förändrar dock henne och ger henne mod till att leva ut och vara sig själv även när andra tittar på.
