Sometimes Life is Hard: A Book Normalizing Childhood Grief and Resiliency

The first time we encounter death is one of the most perplexing experiences we will have until we become caregivers and must explain the concept of death to a child. Death is difficult for children to comprehend, but they, too, go through the stages of grief and may be unaware of their own emotions or what is happening in their homes as they observe those around them grieving. This book is intended to help explain death, what happens to us emotionally, and that things will one day get better. It also teaches children that it's okay to be sad and that grief is a natural part of the healing process. The book suggests relying on family and friends for assistance, as well as looking at photographs and creating art to help sort through complicated feelings. Included is an activity section in the back of the book to help children process their feelings and save memories. While this book is aimed at children aged 4 to 8, it is also intended for the inner child in everyone who has ever experienced grief, regardless of age.
