How the Body Stops Working: Thirteen Kid-Friendly Explanations

What does dead mean? "What is cancer?" "How does someone die?" "Will she come back?" Children are notorious for asking profound and profoundly challenging questions, especially when it comes to death and dying. Adults struggle at times to express the truth about dying in ways that are honest and age appropriate without being scary or confusing. In How the Body Dies: Thirteen Kid-Friendly Explanations, children from ages 6 - 10 will find death defined and demystified. From cancer and dementia, to stroke, heart attack, suicide and addiction, these explanations are accompanied by informative and gentle illustrations which add to the explanatory nature of the book. In counseling offices, doctor's offices, hospitals, and at home, you will find this book invaluable in explaining dying to children to help them understand that death doesn't have to be scary.
