The right book shared with a loving adult can help a child heal. Or a child might read a story over and over again and then ask about “that person in the book, why did that person die?” At any time, after any page, a child can close the book. Reading a book together is a safe connection. The important people who provide love and protection are often lost in their own grieving. The security of a predictable universe is gone. When death happens in a family, especially a sudden, unexpected, “out of order” death, everything changes for a child. We could have talked about the questions and feelings locked up inside me, the sadness, guilt, anger, and also the fears about “who is going to die next?” We could have talked about what happened to “someone else’s sister, brother, parent or friend,” not what happened to my sister … from a safe distance. I wish my mom or dad had this book to read to me. I wrote this book for the child I once was when my sister died. Why did I write a book for children about death?
