Format:Paperback
A lucky school library find; my children enjoyed this almost as much as I did. The simple illustrations were a perfect accompaniment to the slightly irreverent text. There are sufficient cheeky bits to keep snigger-happy children entertained, whilst the story is poignant enough to appeal to the more solemn amongst them. It would create a useful opening to allow discussion of what might happen when someone dies, whether from a religious or secular point of view. Or you could just enjoy it, as we did.

My daughter and I enjoyed this book and it is a nice way to approach the subject of what happens after we die. The only thing I didn't like was the reference to where you go if you haven't behaved yourself during your life. This isn't something I'm interested in teaching my daughter but it only takes up a couple of pages and if you don't mind that approach then its a great book.

For children to help with bereavement
I bought this book to read to my pupils as part of an RE lesson on what happens to us when we die, the pupils loved the story it is wrote in a very sensitive way.

How could it be better
Funny and moving. Whilst there is no better way to bring up the subject of death with children this book is so much more than a difficult conversation starter. Read more
