The Heavy Bag

Enid's bag was heavy.

It grew heavier as she walked.

The feelings began the day her grandad died.

How was she going to lighten the load?

"Sarah Surgey's words gently introduce children to the feeling of grief...

Larisa Ivankovik's illustrations perfectly capture the emotions that Enid is experiencing...

I highly recommend The Heavy Bag as a strong resource in both social and emotional learning and respectful relationships units in primary schools across Australia.
