Book Overview

by Rebekah Lipp (Author), Craig Phillips (Illustrator)

A story to help with navigating the concept of death for children.

Inside every person and every living thing shines a beautiful, loving glow. This unique light connects us to everything around us, guiding us through life with love and warmth. But one day, the glow must return home-a natural part of the journey we all share.

The Glow is a poetic story that gently introduces children to the concepts of life, death, and the light within. Through rhythmic verses and evocative imagery-like twinkling stars and inner glows-it reassures young readers that loved ones never truly leave us. Their light lives on in memories, in our hearts, and as part of our own glow.

The book includes comprehensive parent/teacher notes with guidance on:

  • Understanding grief (it's not just sadness-children may show it through behavior changes)
  • Being honest: Use clear words like "died" to avoid confusion
  • Supporting grieving children: Give space, hugs, and reassurance it's not their fault
  • Ways to remember loved ones: Memory boxes, photos, or talking about happy times

This spiritual yet inclusive approach adapts to your family's beliefs-whether viewing the "light" as a soul, energy, God, or divine love.

About Rebekah Lipp

Rebekah Lipp is an author, entrepreneur and mental health advocate residing in New Zealand. She co-wrote Finding Gratitude (Quarto, 2019). Her personal journey with anxiety, depression and borderline personality disorder inspired Wildling Books, alongside a passion to bring awareness to children's mental health, emotional well-being and anxiety. After experiencing two years of Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) following a period of crisis in her early twenties, she felt there was a real gap in what professionals knew and what parents and teachers needed to know regarding emotional regulation. She believes that we can empower children with skills, help children connect with their emotions, and teach them ways to regulate them. With a gentle parenting approach, Rebekah feels that all children have genius within them and if we act out of a place of compassion, kindness and love, we will see our children thrive. Craig Phillips is an award-winning illustrator whose art has appeared in published works, anthologies and exhibitions across the world. He worked on Neil Gaiman's American Gods and his first solo work, Giants, Trolls, Witches, Beasts won the New Zealand Book Award's Russell Clark Award for Illustration, an Australian Gold Ledger, a CBCA Notable and was a finalist in the Aurealis Awards. Craig lives and works in New Zealand.
