Some souls are saved-but not yet home.

They long to see God, but they cannot pray for themselves. They suffer in purgatory, hoping that someone still on earth will remember them.

In this beautifully illustrated Catholic storybook, young Michael learns the powerful truth that even children can help the suffering souls in purgatory. Through the Mass, the Rosary, small daily sacrifices, and the Church's treasury of indulgences, Michael becomes a little missionary of mercy-bringing light to those who wait in darkness.

Rooted in Catholic teaching and inspired by the powerful reflections in Read Me or Rue It, this book explains the reality of purgatory in a gentle, faithful, and age-appropriate way.

With its warm rhymes and watercolor illustrations, I Won't Forget You helps children understand:

• What purgatory is-and why it exists
• That the holy souls suffer greatly but are full of hope
• That our prayers and sacrifices can truly help them
• And that praying for the dead is a powerful spiritual work of mercy

Perfect for:

• Ages 4 & up (and their families)
• All Souls' Day and November devotions
• First Communion preparation
• Catholic classrooms, homeschools, and parishes
• Any family who has lost a loved one

From the author of Jesus, This Is for You, God, I Trust Your Plan, and Poor Me: Learning to Love My Cross, this story invites children to see beyond the veil-and to love those who cannot ask for love themselves.
