Description

A children's book about death. The book was created for a trusted adult to read with a child to teach them about death, customs regarding death, and feelings that are associated with death. The book does not give one way to think about death, but rather explains a variety of beliefs about death and gives the reader a chance to share their own beliefs and thoughts. The book prepares the child for things they may encounter after a death such as cemeteries, caskets, cremation, etc. in gentle, but honest words. The book gives a family or a group a starting point for further discussion. The illustrations are calming and diverse. The book does not depict one specific race or culture. This book is appropriate to read to kids after they experience the death of someone they know. The book is also appropriate for a curious child who has been asking questions about death. Book initially intended to be read with a child or children between 3 and 12 years old.
