Greetings fellow LM_NETers, I am hoping for some help in creating a list of "best selections for children to understand death and the feelings they have when it is the death of someone close to them and how children may grieve in a developmentally appropriate manner." My father is a director of bereavement services for a hospice association in Canada that has recently received a grant for acommunity lending and resource library on bereavement. They can come up with appropriate books for adults, but are having difficulties finding resources for children. A list of childrens books in the appendix of one of their recently updated books turns out to be a section that was not updated, and most of the books are from the early 1980s. So I am turning to this great, vast community for your input on books you have discovered that help relate the experience of death, grief, and bereavement for children. A few books for adolescents would be helpful as well. I can come up with a few selections myself, but I don't want to rely on my collection and/or Internet reviews to come up with recommended books. Thank you in advance to those who can assist me and I will try to post a HIT list once the information is compiled.
