Your family is fragile, in the midst of grieving the loss of a loved one. Yet there is one particularly vulnerable mourner you must not overlook: your child.

And the ultimate question: Why? This book offers: Answers not only to your child's questions, but to yours, such as: Should I take my child to the viewing? Should my child see my tears? How do I answer my child's questions when they cause me, or others, pain?
