A
Fear Free Introduction to Death
No
matter who you are, where you live, o
r what your age, death is often an "untimely" subject that comes
with powerful, and sometimes fearful feelings. As such, we are often unprepared
to face it, much less explain it to young children.
I Am My Body, NOT! is not about "death," but is instead about life. It suggests that our life is not tied to the existence of our body. By so doing, the subject of death can be introduced to children rationally, and without fear.
After reading I Am My Body, NOT!, some adults have said they wished they had the book when they lost a loved one.
