Par Megan Madison. 2023
An audiobook edition of the board book about grief, offering adults the opportunity to begin important conversations with young children…
in an informed, safe, and supported way. Developed by experts in the fields of early childhood and activism against injustice, this topic-driven book offers clear, concrete language to introduce the concept of grief. This book aims to normalize the topic of death by discussing what it means and how it feels to experience loss. It centers around several questions that arise about grief and honest, simple ways to answer them. While young children are avid observers and questioners of their world, adults often shut down or postpone conversations on complicated topics because it's hard to know where to begin. Research shows that talking about tough issues from the age of two not only helps children understand what they see, but also increases self-awareness, self-esteem, and allows them to recognize and confront things that are unfair, like discrimination and prejudice. These books offer a supportive approach that considers both the child and the adult.
