Craig the Crayon leaves a mark: Gently opening a conversation about grief, loss and difficult feelings.

By Rob Flannery

Callum loves to be creative and uses his favourite crayon to express the fun and silly side of his personality, visualising his broad imagination in his drawings.

But he uses his favourite crayon so much that it eventually disappears, leaving Callum sad and confused, before his Mummy helps him reflect on the lifelong memories that he will never lose.

Beautifully illustrated by Samie Illife, 'Craig the Crayon leaves a mark' is an entertaining story imagined to help children gently open a conversation about grief, separation anxiety, loss and difficult emotions.
