 Excellent gift for the bereaved December 26, 2008

This book continues to be my standard gift to anyone who has lost a loved one. I gave it to my children this year for Christmas in memory of their father who passed away this spring. I taped a childhood picture of them and their dad to the inside to make it personal. Recently a very good friend's 22 year old daughter died suddenly in a freak accident. I gave it to her mother to read the to all the current and future grand children to try to explain the loss and the idea that what is next is so good. It doesn't really fill the void of the lost one, but helps to see the beautiful place they may be in and know that it is good.

I found this book to be exceptionally well written and reflected memories for the recent death of my father.

this is one of the most interesting books relating to death and life. Adults learn more from a children's book and it's very thought provoking ....br /thank you

I have purchased atleast 20 copies of this book to give to friends or family who have recently lost a loved one. The beautiful illustrations of several of the "next places" are comforting to those grieving. This is children's book,but is very helpful to adults who are grieving the lost of a loved one. There is no referance to God or religion, only beautiful pictures of the sky and places where there is no pain, but only the love which had been given. It is very comforting. When my brother died I gave a copy to each of his adult children, so they could share it with their families. br /This is an outstanding book!!! I always keep some on hand.br /DJC
