Customers say
Customers find the book’s language simple yet definitive. They say it helps explain death in a comforting way for small children. The advice and ideas are helpful for families, and the tips for caregivers at the back are also useful. Many customers find the content age-appropriate and effective. However, some feel the book is too specific about losing a grandparent.
