 Not the best book for explaining dying. I ended up discarding it. November 24, 2008

There are many better books for teaching children about dying. I do not recommend this book at all. I have a curriculum for teaching children about death and this book did not meet our standards.
 Perfect Book for Children & Adults November 19, 2008
A mother told me about this book when I was searching for help in explaining death to my 7 year old son. He was overwhelmed and worried about the people he loved dying after a pet had died. Most reviews will tell you how wonderful this story is but there is so much more in this little book. The book also includes a prayer that you and your child can say (if someone in their lives has died). Also, there is a section for parents that offers methods to initiate a discussion with children on how the book relates to them and their experience. This is a helpful tool that explains death in a gentle way.

Loved the story and the helps and prayers. Pictures are lacking to grab the little ones' attention.
Excellent book October 12, 2008
This book is an excellent way to explain death and dying to young children. It really can be used for any age group. It is a wonderful story. I work in a hospice and have used this book for young children and adults love the story.
beautiful story October 5, 2008
I work in hospice and see many lives affected by great loss. Often children are forgotten as adults mourn. I give this book to parents, grandparents, aunts and uncles to provide both attention to the children and a way to help them through a difficult time. This book is helpful and hopeful to all!
