Very good information and ways to work with grieving children. I needed to do a presentation once for hospice workers to help working with children and purchased this to give me some more ideas. Very useful. There are some activities that a caregiver or provider can use with children to help them get through a most difficult and sad time in their lives. Lisa Patterson
