Love, Grief and Remembrance for and about Children and Adults

"One of my favourite books. (And one of my favourite from Jeffers. ) A tear jerker, but it expresses so beautifully the loss children experience, especially grown children. This is not a happy jaunt like The Day the Crayons Quit, but it is ultimately joyful and about the beauty of love."

L. D. (5/5)

An essential book.

"This book teaches about loss and grief in a way that I wish we had as kids. It’s very well done and I highly recommend it to everybody, even if you haven’t personally dealt with loss or grief-it’s great in preparation if it should ever occur-great skill for children to have as well as their development!"

Peggy (5/5)

We all could use to read this book.

"What a darling thoughtful book. I can’t wait to gift it."

Alyssa (5/5)

Beautiful

"A very touching and beautiful story that helps address difficult topics with a younger audience."

Robyn (5/5)

Sweet

"I bought this as a gift for my niece and nephew to help them work through grieving losing a family member. It was simple, sweet, and meaningful. Perfect for 7 year old and up."

Valerie (5/5)

Very simple

"Not alot of detail, doesn't actually mention death, just an empty chair. . . . . where someone special used to sit. It touches on how everything fun and special goes away when the chair becomes empty. Lots of room for a child to fill in how they are feeling, rather than the story over explaining death or loss to them"

Momtoqtpies (5/5)

A beautiful tool for helping kids (or a kid at heart!) deal with the complexities of grief and loss

"I sought this book out after reading a magazine article in which it was described as "":A tender illustrated fable of what happens when we deny our difficult emotions"" It reminded me of Fred Roger's 1969 plea to Congress in 1969 to find PBS. He talked about the show, how important it is to help children both understand their feelings and be able to express them. This is especially true with grief, considering how devastating it is, even for adults. The book is filled with beautiful illustrations. The empty chair is particularly poignant. I strongly recommend this book to practically everyone, especially parents, grandparents, educators and therapists."

Sarahhhh (5/5)

Excellent and adaptable resource

"This book deals tenderly with the difficult theme of loss and grief without ever explicitly saying so. Acknowledges and validates the negative feelings that children may experience while encouraging them to continue to look for joy in life. As there is no mention of death, this book is adaptable to many other situations (e. g. moving away, parents separating, losing a friend)."

Jamayca (5/5)

Pretty Great

"Deals well with loss and grief and how to eventually cope in a beautiful metaphor."

Jamie (5/5)

Touch story with beautiful illustrations

"This is a touching story about when a child loses a loved one, and how they learn to deal with the loss of such a special person as the grow up. This book is highly recommended for both the story and the illustrations. Oliver Jeffers is the best!"
