About this audiobook
A four-year-old boy has died, and his mother cannot forgive God. One night she slips out to her son's grave. A cloaked figure meets her there and offers to lead her down. She meets her little boy, who says that every tear she cries calls him back and keeps him from the joy he has found.
Hans Christian Andersen's story of grief and letting go, read by Erika Clavert. Twenty minutes. A quiet, serious tale for adult listeners.
