Strong Angels

By Tawana Haith, M. Ed.

Damon and his dad, Deron are the best of friends. They are steadily planning their next trip on the open road when tragic news arrives unexpectedly. Damon's story gives the reader a view through his eyes of the emotional rollercoaster that begins to occur in him internally. Moreover, he is immediately thrust into a new position in life, possibly before his time. His journey draws you into the story and gives a front-row seat to the different levels of emotions that a young child may feel, but cannot fully vocalize. This book will help young readers and their families to understand how children can process the loss of an important person in their lives. Through Damon's eyes, his story helps readers to understand how they can empower themselves during and after one of the hardest times in their lives.
