"Old Bert's New Beginning" is a valuable tool in helping children to understand that death is not the end if we have a personal relationship with God through his Son Jesus Christ. In the story, Old Bert experiences mechanical problems that can't be repaired and is laid to rest by his dear friends. However, one soon discovers that the Great Mechanic is able to fix Old Bert and give him a new life in heaven. Death can be a difficult concept for young and old alike to understand or explain. This story helps to give us all a greater understanding of the hope that we can have, even in the midst of grief, and reinforces the all encompassing love of God. As a teacher, school administrator, and grandparent, I highly recommend having this special resource on your shelf to share when the need arises. Its powerful message will prove to be a comfort to those experiencing loss.
