When four-year-old David died of leukemia, his preschool teacher, Miss Robin, was faced with telling his classmates the news. She didn’t know what words to use, only that she had to be fully open to her young students’ questions and let them guide the conversation.
Come join the circle of David’s classmates and listen in as the children share their feelings and express their natural curiosity about this seldom discussed topic. Sit with them as they learn about death and what follows, as Miss Robin speaks to her students using age appropriate language fitting a young child's literal way of processing information, while offering comfort and compassion. And when the time comes, allow your child to experience grief and loss with guidance from David’s friends.
This book is intended to be read to a child,opening a path for further conversation and letting them know that it is safe to ask their own questions. In the section for parents, teachers and caregivers at the end of the book, you will find tips to help you move forward with those conversations as you and your child find comfort together.

Carol Carlson lost her four-year-old son, David, to leukemia in 1986. This devastating and life changing event brought her a new understanding and acceptance of life's most difficult times and eventually new appreciation for life's many joys. Carol went on to have a long career in nonprofit management, working for many years with families of terminally ill children at the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society and the National Marrow Donor Program. Carol is now retired and living in her hometown of Memphis, Tennessee where she runs a volunteer organization supporting mothers of police officers (her other son's chosen career.) Carol wrote and published her first book, Life as a Police Mom, in 2023.
