How do you help a child who has to deal with death?

Today on the show I will have New York Times Bestselling author of The Kissing Hand, Audrey Penn. Her new book is called Chester Raccoon and the Acorn of Memories. We’ll also speak to Brenda Ferber, author of Julia’s Kitchen, which won the Sydney Taylor award when it came out. My third guest will be child psychologist Dr. Paul Donahue, author of Parenting Without Fear . He will join us to discuss ways we can help the kids in our lives when they have to face the death of someone close to them. Bird Bytes, our regular feature by SLJ blogger and NY Public librarian Betsy Bird will be a review of Fever Crumb by Philip Reeve.
