Bear Island is a heartfelt picture book about healing after bereavement by Caldecott Medalist Matthew Cordell.

Louise and her family are sad after their beloved dog Charlie dies. “Life will not be the same,” Louise says, as she visits a little island that Charlie loved. But on the island, something strange happens: she meets a bear who teaches her that getting over a bereavement takes time and that sometimes, things can change for the better.
