this is one of the most interesting books relating to death and life. Adults learn more from a children's book and it's very thought provoking .... thank you
The Next Place August 23, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I have purchased atleast 20 copies of this book to give to friends or family who have recently lost a loved one. The beautiful illustrations of several of the "next places" are comforting to those grieving. This is children's book,but is very helpful to adults who are grieving the lost of a loved one. There is no referance to God or religion, only beautiful pictures of the sky and places where there is no pain, but only the love which had been given. It is very comforting. When my brother died I gave a copy to each of his adult children, so they could share it with their families. This is an outstanding book!!! I always keep some on hand. DJC

A wonderful book for kids and adults June 4, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I am the Human Resources Manager and sadly have seen too many employees go through heart breaking loss of loved ones. I found this book when looking for something more meaningful than a card to give to a close co worker who tragicaly lost her husband. Since then, I have given this book to several employees, friends and families who are struggling to find comfort in the most darkest of times. I also keep a copy for myself for when I need to remember those close to me that have gone to "the next place."
Not only for children - no matter what age we are - death is still a mystery and we need comfort in imagining a wonderful place where that persons spirit is surrounded with our love and friendship.
