This book was helpful in explaining loss to children.
I also used a faith based video, After the Tears, A Gentle Guide to Help Children Understand Death.
Death is such a dificult subject to have to explain to children. It is helpful to have good grief resources.

a wonderful, helpful book

Format:Paperback
This book helped us explain the death of their grandpa, what was to be expected etc. Our children ages 5,8 and 10 asked for this to be read repeatedly. It helped answer questions and brought forth some very interesting observations. It truly helped in a very trying time. It was written in a very forthright manner yet in language children easily understood. It was our most read book for the weeks prior to papa's death.

For readers of all ages, discusses grief in realistic terms
Nov 4 1998
By A Customer
- Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
Well-crafted summary of the grief process, the book has 14 sections of two to three paragraphs that discuss the various aspects of grief, and the ways people cope with the death of loved ones. Written for a young audience, the material is valuable for all ages. While assuming the concept of life after death, this book is sensitive to differences in religious belief and practices and provides opportunities for the young reader to think, to ask questions, and to grow. The illustrations are clever and interesting to young children, they support the message in the text. An introductory message to adults who are working with children offers additional insights and ideas for working through grief.

Excellent book for kids experiencing a loss!

I had two teenage sons die within a year of each other. My surviving children, ages 5 and 8, LOVED this book. My 5 year-old wanted to take it to her first day of kindergarten, so the teacher could read it to the class. She said that she wanted them to know how she feels. Very well written! A must for any child who is grieving!
