{"product_id":"maybe-a-whale-39054","title":"Maybe a Whale","description":"\u003cp\u003eAfter Grandpa dies, a girl and her mother take the trip he had planned for her, kayaking along the Pacific west coast to look for the whales that he loved. The trip will do them good, Mom says, but the girl isn't sure. How can that be true when Grandpa isn't there? And how will they find a whale in all that water, anyway? In this lyrical story, luminously illustrated by Crystal Smith, mom and daughter find the space to grieve Grandpa and reconnect with each other in the wild beauty of nature. And they come to realize that - perhaps like whales - those we've loved are always with us, even if we don't see them anymore. A lovely read to hold space for discussion on concepts related to grief and loss, and healthy ways to cope with them. This is a concept introduced in mental health literacy within Health Education grade 4.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Nova Scotia School Book Bureau","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43665378705468,"sku":null,"price":21.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/3677\/6508\/files\/9781773066646.jpg?v=1762989954","url":"https:\/\/nssbb.ednet.ns.ca\/products\/maybe-a-whale-39054","provider":"Nova Scotia School Book Bureau","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
