A Season Of Grief: A Comforting Companion For Difficult Days by newspaper columnist Ann Dawson is a compilation of quotes, reflections, prayers, poems, and heartfelt sentiment compiled for the specific purpose of offering hope and comfort to those surviving difficult loss. A Season Of Grief is very highly recommended as being an unusually thoughtful collection, with each vignette or passage brief enough for quick browsing, and a volume that presents a variety of differing, yet sincere, perspectives on dealing with the loss of a loved one.

If you have loved and lost this book is a must have. I lost my Husband five years ago to CANCER and I have read grief books since. This is the best of them all.

I have not only read this book, but I have given to people who have lost a loved one unexpectedly. Each person has commented on what a blessing this book was to them. It's very easy reading and the short chapters are helpful when concentration is hard to come by in their time of loss.

In this book, Ann Dawson articulates the passing of her teenage son in such a way that you will feel her pain. God bless her for taking such a painful experience and using it to help others going through the pain of loss. The quotations that she uses from other writers on the subject will inspire you.

This book is not only for those who are currently grieving but also for those who want to learn and understand what the grieving process is about and how you can help others who are experiencing this painful process.

One warning: Once you start reading this book, it is very difficult to set it down.

I read a lot of books during my 'Season of Grief' and this was the very best! I would recommend it to anyone that looses a loved one.

I wish I would have had this book the day I went into depression over our son. The author had similar feelings and talked about them along with brief excerpts from different sources along with a short prayer that pertained to the situation being discussed. I have shared this book with others grieving over death or serious situations with their children and I have heard nothing but grateful comments including they cannot put the book down and has helped them through the process.

EXCELLENT BOOK. A MUST FOR THE PASSING OF A LOVE ONE
