The Copper Tree

The Copper Tree, by Hilary Robinson and Mandy Stanley

Description

When Olivia’s teacher, Miss Evans, dies, the children at her school are encouraged to think of everything that reminds them of her. Written with touching sensitivity and sprinkled with light hearted moments, ‘The Copper Tree’ is about love and legacy and will help children understand that while sadness is an inevitable part of grief, death is not necessarily the end … for what is left behind can be everlasting.
