I found this wonderful book for little ones about coping with the death of a grandparent. Children have a difficult time processing and understanding that they will never see their precious grandparent again. This lovely story that includes adorable elves will help put things into perspective for them.
“Addressing the needs of children and the adults who care for them. Losing a grandparent is often a child’s first experience with grief. The ordeal can be as bewildering as it is painful. Explaining what happens from a child’s-eye view, the little elves in this book depict the difficult days before, after, and beyond a grandparent’s death. They explore the meaning of death and heaven, as well as how to stay close in spirit with a grandparent who has died. With ideas for action and questions for discussion, this creative guide will help you help your grieving child to create comforting memories and find closure.” Softcover; 32 pages. http://www.amazon.com/When-Your-Grandparent-Dies-Elf-Help/dp/0870293648
