A Kickstarter project has been launched to raise funds for the publication costs of The Daffodils Still Grow, a book that helps children deal with the reality of bereavement. This project will help author Sherri Elizabeth Tidwell publish this book to assist children in processing grief.
Nunnelly, TN -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/17/2015 -- The Daffodils Still Grow by Sherri Elizabeth Tidwell is a full-color illustrated children's book that portrays life after a loved one dies from the viewpoint of a child who has lost her mother. Now, Tidwell has begun a Kickstarter campaign to raise funds for mass publication of this book.
The book has received critical acclaim and positive reviews from readers, including Kerry Menn, LPC-S and Program Director at the Children's Bereavement Center of South Texas, who said, "This touching book so beautifully illustrates the complexity of a young girl's grief journey and how love leaves a legacy and hope. Our counseling team will share this book with families to inspire and help them carry the legacy of their loved ones into the future." Another reader, Ann Pollock of Fort Worth, Texas, said, "I lost my mother… when I was 11. I'm now 70, and I cried like a baby reading this. Those feelings, so poignant, so real, came rushing back. Thank you for putting beautiful words to so many of the emotions that still come unbidden after almost 60 years."
The author has spent about $2,000 to self-publish the book, but still needs money to promote it. She intends to utilize social media such as Facebook to assist her in this endeavor. The Facebook page for the book is www.facebook.com/thedaffodilsstillgrow. The Daffodils Still Grow will be released by Amazon CreateSpace in March 2015.
