My Daddy Died by Suicide: A Jakey Joe Book

By Ann M Ashmead

Talking to a child about their daddy's death by suicide must be purposeful. It is not something you want them to hear from another child or overhear in someone's private conversation. Reading this book together will provide an opportunity to discuss the death.

In this book Jakey Joe, the good listening family dog, provides a safe place for his young owner to explain and talk about the feelings surrounding daddy's death by suicide. Jakey's young human projects their feelings onto Jakey. These feelings include sadness, loneliness, and the desire to feel happy again.

Reading this book with your child will help you both understand that your child is experiencing multiple feelings that may or may not look like yours. By the end of the book your child will know that remembering daddy can bring with it feelings of being happy.
