Editorial Reviews

From School Library Journal

Grade 6 Up Sixteen young people between the ages of 10 and 24 recall siblings they loved and express their loss. They describe their own feelings and reactions and the outside pressures that accompany the death of their sibling, sharing their experiences so that others who experience the same loss will not feel alone. All of them encourage other young people to talk about their feelings in order to ease the pain and enable them to go on with their lives. Each profile is as clear as the photos that usually accompany it. Young adults and adults will find this easy, brief book both insightful and heartwarming. Ruth Amernick, San Francisco Public Library
