Losing someone we love is hard and finding a way through sadness can seem impossible. What Happens After? gently helps young children navigate their feelings in the wake of grief. "The book's simplicity and emotional honesty will appeal to kids and adults alike as Namm strips the end of life down to its basics...and reassures readers that it will all be OK. A Simple, emotionally effective exploration of loss." -Kirkus Reviews In this thoughtful picture book aimed at young children, author Diane Namm tackles the difficult topic of death by focusing on how those that are left behind experience a variety of feelings. From wondering why the loved one died, feeling angry, feeling sad-to looking for signs in the world in order to remember those we've lost, the stages of grief are portrayed through simple words and pictures as a process with no deadline. What Happens After? gently reminds readers that working through feelings takes time, that loved ones will always be in our hearts, even while life goes on. Laura Jäger's sweet and colorful images depict a range of emotions and include a wide variety of lost loved ones, from children and parents to grandparents and even pets. Namm's text allows readers to process grief on their own timetable saying, "It takes as long as it takes." Together, the words and pictures in this new book deliver an effective primer for parents seeking a way to discuss grief with young children.
