GRIEF ENCOUNTER
Grief Encounter Project, by Shelley Gilbert

NEW

Grief encounter is a workbook designed to encourage conversations about death between children and adults.

Extremely well written, accessible in its language and approach, with strong appeal to ordinary parents and children faced with bereavement. There is nothing scary about this book; it is hands-on, user-friendly and full of useful ideas to help a child understand his or her feelings. It will also help the parent/guardian to understand the child and find a way to bring comfort together. I wish I had been given the guidance of a book like this, to show me a way to open up and share my feelings of bereavement as a child.

Helen Levene, Editor Puffin Books.
