pickMatter-of-fact, yet gentle. This is an honest and realistic explanation that everything that lives, dies. It is straightforward without forgetting its audience. I also appreciated that this was an entirely secular take on death, focusing only on death and not the questions about what, if anything, happens afterward.
Today‘s book delivery was bittersweet, with an #Autumnal cover. A gift to help a friend with grief. I bought a second copy that will be used for another grieving friend. It has been an incredibly sad week. #31bookpics
This is my favourite kids book about life and death. When ever I find one in an op shop I buy it. I‘ve given many away. Robert Ingpens drawings are amazing. I love the book for me. Always makes me feel good when I read it. @MrsMalaprop
