Review from Bereavement Care - Summer 2008

Granny prepares Megan for her (Granny's) eventual death while they both lay flowers on Grandad's grave. There is a lot...about God's love and God's house. It is a good idea for grandparents to talk about death with children, especially their own death, and this book would be fine for a religious family to address the subject. It will certainly spark off questions which I hope they will be prepared to answer. The illustrations are pretty.
