Lost But Found: A Boy’s Story of Grief and Recovery
Lost But Found deals with one of the toughest issues a parent may ever have to face—explaining to a child that a loved one has died. Often young children are left out of the grieving process and have a hard time understanding the permanence of death. Society tends to add to this confusion with euphemisms such as “gone”, “passed on”, “loss”‘. This book helps a young boy make sense of his father’s death by using clear and compassionate language.
This book is a good starting point for young readers (ages 3 – 6) looking for answers when grieving the death of person that they hold close to their heart.
