Patrick and Grandma's Tree

By Sr. David Correa U.

Patrick and his grandma plant a tiny seed in the garden-one that will grow slowly, just like Patrick. As the seasons pass and the tree begins to bloom, so does their special bond. But when Grandma falls ill and can no longer visit the garden, Patrick must learn to care for the tree-and his memories-with quiet strength and love.

Told with warmth and simplicity, Patrick and Grandma's Tree is a gentle story about love, grief, and the roots that remain when someone we love is no longer near. Inspired by timeless ideas from Stoic philosophy, this book helps children aged 3 to 7 navigate feelings of loss and remembrance with emotional resilience and hope.

With soft, crayon-style illustrations and tender language, this story invites young readers to explore themes of connection, memory, and peace. A meaningful tool for families, educators, and therapists to talk about the emotions that follow when someone we love passes on.

Part of the Little Strong Hearts series, Patrick and Grandma's Tree reminds us that the love we plant continues to grow-strong, steady, and always there.
