The topic of death and related issues (such as grief) often begins with questions. When the questions come from, or are about, children or adolescents, they bring an additional component—the fear some adults have of giving a “wrong” answer. This book provides information that can be used to address the death-related questions from children and adolescents.

Additional Information
There is no one answer to most of the questions in this book. It also looks at questions from caring adults about the way children or adolescents view death and the grief that follows a death or any major loss. This work contains ideas and techniques that can be of value to parents, educators, counselors, therapists, spiritual advisors, caring adults and, of course, will be of the most benefit to those who ask the most questions…the children and adolescents themselves.
