GrandMa Help Me Heal!: Courageous Kids Series

By Dr. Yolanda Denise Geolingo

When storms of sadness, worry, and fear feel too heavy, Grandma's love is there to guide the way.

In Grandma Help Me Heal, a tender picture book for children ages 5-10, a young Black child learns to cope with big feelings after their military parent comes home carrying invisible wounds. With patience, warmth, and gentle wisdom, Grandma helps her grandchild name their feelings, practice calming strategies, and see that healing takes time-but love makes it possible.

Through cozy moments, shared stories, and the comfort of Grandma's embrace, this book reminds children that they are never alone. Perfect for military families, grandparents, teachers, and counselors, Grandma Help Me Heal is a heartwarming resource that fosters resilience, connection, and hope.
