Abstract
Where Joy Begins is an illustrated, powerful message of hope. World events and the loss of a friend inspired artist and author Chris Shea to create this powerful little book of thoughts she wanted to share with anyone who was finding life difficult. Everyone grieves at one time or another, and we often feel that there is little we can say or do to alleviate the hurt of a loved one. Through her sincere words and simple but moving illustrations, Shea offers a ray of hope and a bit of healing.
