Book Overview Written by a child 9 year old after the loss of her Dad, in order to help other children. A gentle story of love, loss, and finding light...

Written by a child 9 year old after the loss of her Dad, in order to help other children.

A gentle story of love, loss, and finding light after goodbye.

Whether you're supporting your own child, a friend's family, or working with children professionally - we see you. Grief is hard. And helping children through it is even harder.

This book was lovingly written by 9 year-old Daisy Blu Mathison, who lost her daddy, Daley, in a tragic racing accident when she was just 3 years old. Now, Daisy wants to help other children like her - children who are hurting, confused, or don't know how to explain what they feel. So together with her mum, she created this story.

A book from a child who truly understands, for other children walking the same path.

What's it about?
In the heart of Fairfield Forest lives Hugsy Brightheart, a magical bear whose belly glows with the colours of love, courage, and healing. But when his best friend, a wise old star named Lumi, disappears into the sky, Hugsy's heart feels heavy.

This gentle, beautifully illustrated story follows Hugsy's journey through sadness, memory, friendship and hope - helping children explore big feelings in a soft, safe way.

Why this book matters: This is not just a book about grief. It's a message from one child to another.

With warmth, compassion, and understanding, this book helps children:

  • Understand that it's okay to feel sad, angry or confused.
  • Realise they're not alone, even if it feels like it.
  • Know that love doesn't end - it changes shape.
  • Begin to talk about their feelings, with a grown-up they trust.
  • Find comfort in memories, stories, and cuddles.
  • Feel seen, supported, and understood - especially during hard days.


As seen on BBC and featured on national radio.
Daisy's story is touching hearts across the UK - featured by BBC News, BBC Radio, and supported by grief organisations and schools. Her mission is simple: "To help one little heart at a time feel a little less lost."

  • Families navigating grief or bereavement.
  • Grandparents, godparents, friends or neighbours supporting a grieving child.
  • Schools, teachers, child therapists and counsellors.
