As a parent, there are those moments with our children that bring us to pause. One of those moments is the first time our child asks us about death. Most parents experience dread and discomfort as they think, Oh, how am I going to answer this one?! Yet, children are naturally curious about life and death and there is a point when parents have the wonderful duty/ honor of providing an answer that is accurate and simple enough for a child to understand. Although this can be a challenging subject to discuss with a child, this story provides comfort to both children and adults. While easing children’s fears as they encounter a natural process of life, this book helps us understand that we are so much more than our bodies.
