For the Love of Emrys book
Conversations about death and grief are generally avoided when speaking to young children. However, when a death occurs in the family, whether it be a beloved pet or a relative children need to be helped through the grieving process.
Author Barbara Ann Simone has written a storybook aimed at children in elementary school to help them cope with and gain a better understanding of the grieving process. The book entitled For The Love of Emrys is the story of a girl that is deeply saddened by the loss of her loyal dog. She is befriended by a magical dragonfly who helps her realize the healing power of love.
Included in the book are discussion questions for parents, guidance counselors and teachers helping children dealing with grief.
The book is available through amazon.com, barnesandnoble.com or directly through the publisher at www.magicalplanet.com
