My Grandpa Gum Tree: A Canberra Story

By Abraham Thomas

My Grandpa Gum Tree - A Canberra Story

Helping kids understand Death & Grief

Among the gum trees of Canberra, where mist rolls in over the Brindabella ranges and the bush holds its breath between seasons, a little koala misses his Grandpa.

Told through the gentle rhythms of the natural world, this beautiful picture book opens a conversation about loss - and reminds children that endings are part of every story worth telling.

A quietly honest book about grief, memory, and the surprising ways we carry the people we love with us, long after they're gone
