The loss of a parent has been called “the loss that is forever,” and young people who have suffered this loss feel especially different than those around them.

Lynne Hughes lost both her parents at a young age, and in 1998 founded Comfort Zone Camp® as a safe and fun place for grieving children.

In this moving book, she and her campers reach out to teens and the people who care for them with understanding and compassion. Frank and accessible testimonials, along with discussion of what helps, what doesn’t, what “stinks,” and ways to stay connected to loved ones make this an essential resource for coping and beginning the lifelong process of healing.

The book is available through our store, your local bookstore or at the following on-line retailers. The links below will take you straight to the book.

“What a compassionate, thorough, reassuring book! If I’d had it at seventeen, it would have saved me a decade of feeling that I was the only girl to lose a mother so young.”

- Hope Edelman, Motherless Daughters
