 Sad Isn't Bad July 22, 2008
G. Culver (Fall City, WA USA)
This was one of the books I purchased to read to my almost 4 year old grandson. His "grandpa" died 3 months ago. He loves being read to and we were able to talk about some of the memories he had of his grandpa.
There were some parts of the book I did not read to him as I felt he was not ready for them. However, validation of his feelings really came through as a positive thing. I am sure we will explore more of this book as he really liked hearing about how it wasn't bad to feel sad.

Reviewer's book: Overcoming Loss: Activities and Stories for Children Who Have Experienced Grief and Loss
This fictional story helps young children to come to terms with the feelings they may be experiencing due to a loss. This book covers the grief process through its story line and is appropriate for any child.

I had intended this book to be for my 4 yo grandson, it is more suited to my 12 yo niece. Still a nice book, very informational, and gave her lots to think about and even took some of the chapters to heart. She had lost her mother at 3 yrs of age and is lately showing signs of guilt and behavior problems.

My 8 yr old grandson was very interested in this. It lets them know it is normal to feel sad and blue and crying is okay when they lose a loved one.Helps them understand the whole grieving process.

This is a great book for younger children who have had a great loss. I have read this to my 5 and 7 yr old after my dad died. This book let them know that their feeling are okay. I would recommend this book to any parent looking for a way to help a child through the grief process
