"Stunning storytelling gently takes us on Arlo's emotional and heartfelt journey through loss and out the other side to happier days. You can feel the amount of care and tenderness that has gone into each page, making this such a positive and accessible picture book to add to any children's bookshelf. Especially, in preparation for and times of loss. The thoughtful wording and warm, relatable illustrations help children to see that these types of big feelings are normal and OK to have. With emphasis on the importance of not bottling up feelings as this can cause them to grow. Its ending is heart-warming and positive; supporting the idea of being able to remember loved ones that are no longer with us in a happy way." - 3LittleButtons blog ; "Understanding what it means to us when someone dies can be hard for adults as well as children and I think this book will provide a gentle way into those difficult but necessary discussions that we need as we process what's happened. The illustrations are wonderful, working with the story to create a safe space to open up about overwhelming emotions and how to deal with them. 'Storm in a Jar' is a beautiful book that talks tenderly to children as they journey through their grief towards the light and hope that life still holds." - Loll Kirby, author of 'Old Enough to Save The Planet' (Magic Cat) ; "An honest and very much needed book about grief, loss, light and love." - @inclusive_childrens_books on Instagram ; "A great book for prompting important conversations about difficult emotions, and one that will certainly help many children understand their own feelings when dealing with loss" - @tillyscrump3 on Instagram ; "I've been looking for the right book to help my younger children with the mixture of emotions faced with our grief. A book to cover the anger, the confusion, the questions and encourage honest & open discussions...finally I've found the perfect one" - @ramblingsandrainbows on Instagram
