The book is designed to offer comfort and companionship to parents who are journeying through the heartache of losing their baby.
It's my aspiration that within the pages, they will find a haven for contemplation, a sanctuary for healing, and a gentle embrace for remembering the precious moments shared with their baby.
It also includes carefully chosen verses along with narratives from my own experience.
Helen Pugh is the author of Unsung Women in Somerset, a collection of short stories focussing on real-life and legendary women who lived, loved, worked and struggled in Somerset. She grew up in Somerset and returned in 2018.
Her other works include Intrepid Dudettes of the Inca Empire, an accessible non-fiction historical account of incredible Inca women who lived hundreds of years ago. For children, she has written Jungle-tastic Tales and Inca-tastic Tales, short story anthologies for children based on extensive research into the rainforest and Inca history, respectively, as well as Cuentos incatásticos for Spanish speakers. Her interest in South America and the Incas began in 2006, when she first went to Ecuador.
Helen studied Spanish and Italian at university and has a lifelong passion for history, especially that of historical women who made history, but have been sidelined.
