Product Information
'Essential, powerful, and psychologically researched resource to equip adults to model healthy grieving and help children at this age with loss.' —Booklist 'No one likes to think about it, and even fewer plan for it, but explaining death to a toddler can be a difficult task … The author acknowledges that a book on death written just for little ones is a bit niche but emphasizes in the foreword the need to properly discuss this tough situation with young children … An important book to have on hand for those who serve toddlers.' —School Library Journal
