Books for children and those who care for them

Death. Divorce. Grief. Loss.

Tough Topics to Deal With.

If you're researching a story on how kids grieve and how adults can help them through the grieving process, please take a look at 25 Things to Do When Grandpa Passes Away, Mom and Dad Get Divorced, or the Dog Dies.

This practical book recognizes two important facts: kids grieve many different losses, not just the life-changing ones like death and divorce. It also shows us that children need a variety of ways to express grief. Laurie Kanyer, who works with families where death, divorce, and homelessness are all too common, describes the grieving process and outlines activities that help bereaved children. She explains the value of each activity so that parents and caregivers can select the activities appropriate for a child's age, the kind of loss and the child's stage in the grieving process.
