Synopsis

Heartbreaking yet ultimately uplifting, Andrews’ collection of tender illustrations born from the tragic loss of his wife document grief and family life with grace and beauty.

When his wife, Joy, died very suddenly, a daily drawing became the way Gary Andrews dealt with his grief.

From learning how to juggle his kids' playdates and single-handedly organising Christmas, to getting used to the empty side of the bed, Gary's honest and often hilarious illustrations have touched the hearts of thousands on social media.

Finding Joy is the story of how one family learned to live again after tragedy.

'If ever there was something created from the heart, this is it. A remarkable book that charts the journey of grief with warmth, compassion and humour. For those of us who have experienced loss, it offers comfort and hope. Despite the story of loss, there is so much joy in these pages.' - Jason Watkins, BAFTA award-winning actor and Patron of Child Bereavement UK

'A delightful and poignant rollercoaster, like grief itself ... Heartbreaking and life-affirming'. - Cariad Lloyd, host of Griefcast
