Overview

MomMom Cares tells the story of a young boy who lost his grandmother, and the warm, positive thoughts he has whenever he sees rainbows. As the story develops, the young child has a wonderful, loving relationship with his grandmother who he calls MomMom. He and MomMom enjoyed lots of fun activities together. After MomMom dies, the child is reminded of MomMom and his love for her whenever he sees rainbows.

Written by a mother trying to explain the death of her own mother to her child, MomMom Cares is an excellent book for other parents to explain the death of a grandparent, bereavement groups, churches, temples, counselors, and spiritual advisers like a priest, rabbi, or cantor.

Parents often have a difficult time telling their children that a grandparent died. Often, we can still feel the presence of a loved one after they are gone, and many see signs that their loved one is still around them. Through supernatural phenomena, many people reported seeing butterflies, ladybugs, rainbows, doves, robins, and other animals and things in nature to remind us of our loved ones who died, or as a sign that they are watching over us.
