his family help and guide him through. Carefully researched about
the stages of grief for young children, Sarah J Dodd sensitively
portrays this in the response and actions of Ekundayo to help
children express and share how they are feeling with those around
them. Ekundayo's aunt and father provide words of understanding,
reassurance and comfort, and the message that the love of

Duncan also provides helpful advice for parents and carers as
consider how to talk about death and dying with young children.
