For Giselle there is before, when Mami was still here, but now there is only after - with Mami no longer with them. In order to help herself and her Papi reclaim some of that before magic, Giselle takes the two of them on a magical journey of imagination. 

A sweet book about grief and taking little steps every day to feel a bit more healed. A child who is mourning for some reason will feel comforted.
