About this ebook
A lovely book with a universal message. This poetic journey through the eyes of a child and his father explores the many ways that people on the earth view death and dying and the hereafter through culture and religion. The words are clear and straightforward and help to illustrate a very complex issue in language a child can understand. The book shows an understanding and respect for diverse faith and traditions and is a great resource for grieving children and families and the professionals who work with them.
