Yes, I recommend this book!

Often times children don't get their questions answered because the grown ups are trying to deal with their own loss and business and arrangements that must be taken care of.
It is helpful to know what to say and how to explain things to children.
This book helps parents find the words they will need. I also recommend a faith based video for the children, After the Tears, A Gentle Guide to Help Children Understand Death.

Grandparents can talk about death and grief.

When the topic of death comes into the conversation with children, it is very helpful to have thought about what I want to say beforehand. This book gave me the opportunity to be more prepared to answer my grandchildrens' questions about death in a relaxed and confident manner.

This straightforward book helps adults talk to children in meaningful ways, nurturing their faith and building their emotional strength during a time of crisis. The author explains common reactions (emotional, physical, and behavioral) parents can expect from children of all ages, and offers adults the spiritual tools they need to help children cope with a significant loss.
