Customer Reviews

Warmly helpful to grieving parents and children.

The Journey Through Grief and Loss: Helping Yourself and Your Child When Grief Is Shared is a very helpful book for parents seeking guidance for their children and helps them as well in the process. The information is presented in a warmly supportive way helping anyone grieving feel cared for by reading the book. Professionals can also find guidance through Rob's insight and experience. I hope the book is soon translated in Spanish.

Excellent resource for parents, families and counselors

As a professional grief counselor, I have yet to find a better resource on the subject of parental and child grief combined in one book. Robert Zucker has written a guide that is a must have for any grieving family. I highly recommend this book!

Great guidance for grieving families

As a grief educator, who speaks on grief and loss in the lives of children, teens, and adults, I have found this book to be one of the best resources around. Not only is it full of helpful information and suggestions for both adults and children, but it is a compassionate guide for a grieving parent to turn to at a difficult time. I own over 100 books on grief and loss and is one of my top ten recommendations. The reader will learn about the difference between adult and child grief as well as learn such important ideas as how to talk about death to children, returning to school and to work, and the signs when a child may need professional help with their grief. The end of the book has an entire listing of grief support groups and grief centers throughout the US as well as other suggested books and web sites. Highly recommend this.
