• This book talks about a child losing a grandparent. How could it be used to help a child who has experienced an untimely loss, such as the death of a parent, sibling or friend?
   
• Would you recommend this book regardless of the cause of death–illness, accident, violent crime, suicide?
   
• Are the grieving activities you suggest in this book more valuable for children than such traditional bereavement activities as funerals?
   
• Why do we need to talk to children–especially toddlers and preschoolers–about death?
   
• If we are going to talk to kids about death, what's the most important thing to emphasize?
