Rosie
Coming to terms with the death of a sibling
Stephanie Jeffs
Coming to terms with the death of a sibling is something none of us would wish to have to do, but for parents and children who are dealing with the effects of the long-term illness of a child, this is exactly what they need to be prepared for. This sympathetic story of love and faith under difficult circumstances takes us into the life of Jenny and her sister, Rosie, who is unwell and has to stay in bed most of the time. Jenny wants to know why Rosie doesn’t get better. For all those suffering in the same way, this book offers the promise that God hates pain and suffering too, and has prepared a place for us in heaven, where there is no illness or hurt.
Josh
Coming to terms with the death of a friend
Stephanie Jeffs
What is death? Where do our bodies go when we die? How do we come to terms with grief and put our trust in God? These questions are difficult enough for adults to answer, let alone for a child who has experienced the death of a friend. This sensitive story, written from a child’s perspective, moves readers through the pain and emptiness of grief and loss to the sadness that accompanies the acceptance of death and burial, explaining what happens to the body of a dead person, and reassuring children of the safe place awaiting everyone who puts their faith in God.
