Where Did They Go?: Helping Children Understand a Loved One's Passing - Paperback

by Katrina-Jane (Author)

In this 2nd edition the identity of who has passed is nonspecific and can be used to help a child understand the passing of a grandmother, uncle, or pet or anyone in between. You may not see the soul, but it always travels with you. Touching, profound and poignant, this book strives to help you to help your children understand where a loved one or special pet goes when they pass on, sometimes unexpectedly. For children the world can seem like a big place, full of wonder, excitement and fun. But there are times when life's more serious side can enter into their lives, perhaps sooner than we would wish for them. Bereavement is one such time and, while we would like to shield them from the pain as much as possible, it is also a fundamental part of life and must be faced. It is something which does not always have to be a negative. It can be used to help heal wounds and bring a new perspective to a child's viewpoint. This book helps to deal with just that. It gently, and with great sensitivity, explains to children where we go when we die, reminding them that this is only ever temporary and that wherever they go, the spirit of their loved one or pet travels with them always.
