Synopsis

A wealth of advice and helpful suggestions for those helping children through bereavement and loss. Children who experience loss through death or separation need support and understanding, both at home and at school. We often struggle to know what to say and how to provide this support. Staff in schools need to understand what to say and what to do, what might help and even what might not, and how to work with families. This book gives an overview of different behaviours you may encounter in school and how to respond, as well as discussing questions children may ask and how to answer them. Children's understanding of death varies according to stage of development and the author provides guidance on age-appropriate, honest responses along with a toolkit of creative and arts activities to help children examine and understand their emotions, physical feelings and memories.

Revue de presse

'...written simply and clearly with compassion and understanding...gives examples of ways of speaking to children at particular developmental stages, which could be extremely useful...[the author's]congruent, honest answers were a joy to read...instructions are clear and concise and potential vulnerability of the adult is reduced by having such clear guidance... brief case studies reinforce the practical nature of the book and would inspire the reader to try reaching out to children struggling, rather than shying away from them. I would have loved to have this book as a resource when I was working in junior schools and can see its value there... a valuable resource for youth workers, social workers, parenting groups, anyone who supports children or who supports the adults who support children. Anna Jacobs seems to have asked 'What would help me in this situation?' and then answered it in full.' --BACP Children & Young People Journal September 2013
