This is my read aloud of THE HOLE, a meaningful #picturebook by Author lindsaybonilla.author & Illustrated by Brigida Magro sweetbeyond 
THE HOLE explores powerful topics of grief & loss. It’s a story of a young boy whose brother has died and he feels like there’s a deep empty hole in his life, a hole that at first feels like a tragic reminder of all he’s lost, but later turns into a space to keep precious memories. THE HOLE is a sad story, but it’s also a healing tale that demonstrates the power of love. I recommend this book to children & even adults who’ve loved & lost. 📚❤️➡️ WATCH THE FULL STORY ON MY WEBSITE AT ETRAINTALKS.COM OR ON MY YOUTUBE CHANNEL ➡️ KINKS IN BIO 📚
