Explaining death to a child is one of the most difficult tasks a parent or other relative can face.

? Selecting useful books about death
? Handling especially difficult situations, including murder and suicide
? Deciding whether a child should attend a funeral
With a new chapter devoted to the special issues of the bereaved toddler, The Grieving Child provides invaluable suggestions for dealing with a child's emotional responses (including anger, guilt, and depression) and helping a child adjust to a new life.
