Book Reviews of We Were Gonna Have a Baby, But We Had an Angel Instead

Book Review: Explains Miscarriage to a Preschooler Directly, and Beautifully.
Summary: 5 Stars

I miscarried at 11 weeks, and while my husband and I were able to explain things and console our 3-year old daughter, this book also helped her understand that other kids have gone through this pain, and felt the way she felt. Written for the preschool set and beautifully illustrated, "...Angel Instead"'s young narrator speaks directly and honestly to your child about the sadness and uncertainty of miscarriage. There are no happy endings in this book, but your child will come away feeling less alone - mine did. Excellent notes at the end of the book about parenting a grieving child are well worth a read-through or two.
