Description
Grief is messy and complicated. This children's book helps kids process their grief through simple, relatable, child-friendly language.
The ABCs of Grief is a children's book that walks through each letter of the alphabet to unpack different aspects of the grief experience.
Grief is messy, confusing, and overwhelming for all ages -- but especially young children who are trying to make sense of the big changes and losses happening around them.
The perfect book for children facing grief related to: death, moving, illness, traumatic medical experiences, new diagnoses, natural and manmade disasters, big changes with school or other activities, feeling 'different' from others, abuse, immigration, foster care, absent or distant caregivers, and more.
