My mother died when I was 11 1/2 and this is one book, of many, I wish had been available. Compiled by a photojournalist who’s written many similar books, this one has stories of children from about ages 5-16 who have lost a parent to death. The kids basically tell their own stories and the author took their photos. Tries to be comprehensive: many ages of the kids and many reasons for the deaths of the parents, but I would have appreciated even more diversity and many more kids’ stories. Could be a helpful book for many children. I changed the star ratings for all the "How It Feels" books from 4 to 5 because I find that I'm constantly recommending them and also because I think they're perfect for inspiring kids to tell their own stories.
