Sensitive look at children's fears about death,
By K.M.Montgomery (Indiana) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Poppy's Chair (Turtleback)
In this picture book Hesse explores death from a children's perspective. When Leah goes to visit her grandparents for the first time since her grandfather's death she feels incredibly sad without him. Gramma and Leah do their traditional things together but it is different without Poppy. Finally Leah and Gramma talk about it and she admits her fears about Gramma dying too. Leah learns from her grandmother that she can still live happily without Poppy and Leah falls asleep in Gramm's bed, with Gramm on one side of her and a picture of Poppy looking down on her from the other. This story is clear about loss and healing from losses and may help children understand their own grief.
