The Empty Place

A Child's Guide Through Grief

by Dr. Roberta Temes
illustrated by Kim Carlisle

When a nine-year-old boy's beloved big sister dies, he is confused, angry and fearful. For the first time, he must face the finality of death and the pain of loss. His parents, also grieving, seem distant, until a counselor teaches them all how to cope and heal.

"The simple story rings true... For teachers, parents and counselors looking for a way to reach a grieving child."
— Detroit Free Press
