Damaged

I bought this to give to child after loosing her grandpa. It came with the cover ripped and looks used

Great book! But product arrived... Gross

Amazing book I use with my clients (im a psychotherapist)... Except when I got the book the book jacket appeared to be covered in either lotion or vascaline ... Slippery and gross. When I opened the book it appeared to be new buy the jacket and outside was definitely USED : (

Beautiful parable for all ages

I read this to my four year old after my father died. We had already discussed the topic of death in a concrete way, that your heart stops beating and you stop breathing. She loved this book and asked to hear it twice. Like a typical four year old, we talked only briefly about death and more about how she likes fall because the wind whipping her dress around makes her look like a superhero. But I like how this book allowed me to introduce some concepts in a gentle way.

The only thing I would warn other parents is to avoid associating sleep with death. On the last page Freddie closed his eyes and fell asleep. I read the book first (cried quietly to myself), and decided to just read it to her as “He closed his eyes”. The story still makes sense.
