The Happy Bug

Written by a widowed mother, The Happy Bug is a gentle children’s story about love, loss, and remembrance. Inspired by a hand-painted vintage Volkswagen Bug created by her late husband, this comforting book uses bright illustrations, coastal charm, and simple language to help children understand big feelings — and to show that even after loss, love and joy never disappear. Perfect for families navigating grief, illness, or big life changes, The Happy Bug opens the door for meaningful conversations during hard seasons.
