review:
'What Happened to Daddy's Body?: Explaining what happens after death in words very young children can understand' by Elke Barber and Alex Barber delivers well on it's very long subtitle.

Alex Barber lost his father when he was three years old. He wondered what happened to his father's body. This book is the process he and his younger sister went through and how his mother explained things. It's told in a very straightforward manner, and while the story is very specific, I can see how this would be helpful for other children.

I like that it's based on true events (though not that Alex lost his father). I really like that this sort of book exists for young children. I appreciate the work that Jessica Kingsley Publishers does in printing works like this. This is an excellent and accessible way to approach the subject with young children who have lost a parent.

I received a review copy of this ebook from Jessica Kingsley Publishers and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this ebook.
