About the Book
When a flower seed is planted, it takes just the right amount of food, water, and sunshine to grow. Sometimes—even though we do everything right—the seed doesn’t always bloom into a flower the way we hope or expect it to.
Through poetic language and whimsical illustrations, Still Blooming tells an engaging story of how many things have to go exactly right for a flower to bloom; depicting a simple analogy of what it takes for every baby to be born. When a family is faced with the heartbreak of losing a baby during pregnancy, it can be difficult for parents to explain to their other children. This book creates a tender space for children (and their parents) to process the emotions that may arise from such a profound loss.
Still Blooming ends with a hopeful promise: even if we don’t get to see the seed we planted grow into a flower here on earth, we can be assured that it is safe and happy thanks to the care of a loving Gardener. A gentle and interactive prompt at the end of the book equips parents to start a conversation with their living children about siblings in Heaven, either for the first time, or as a loving reminder.
Author Chelsey Schnell is a mom to four children on Earth, and two in Heaven. She is the Founder of Evermore Blooms, a nonprofit organization that cares for mothers who’ve experienced miscarriage.
