Mirror Box is a great children's book. I love that this book addresses the topic of grief in a simple way for children to understand. Children can learn a lot of useful life lessons from reading this book and it has great illustrations that'll entertain them.

I think the subject of grief in children is one of the least explored subjects in relationships involving children. I thank this author for writing about this. Thanks for the review.

Losing a friend or family member can be extremely hard. Furthermore, a book that shows how to manage pain is an extraordinary asset to get with. This book appears to help somebody grieving to recuperate. Congrats to the creator on BOTD! I think the author has made a lot of homework and research to write this book. I liked the book very much.

This is an expertly written book about the subject of grief for young children. It helps children navigate the often treacherous and vulnerable fallout of losing their loved one. It also teaches us to cherish every moment spent with our loved ones.

Post by Sangeetha P 1 »

Nice review.
The point which you said about value the time with our elders more because we don't know when they leave us is absolutely true.
Moving in this modern world full of busy schedule forgetting ourselves sometimes, we forget to take care of spend time with our parents and grandparents. We will regret it only later. Empathetic relationships with family will forever let us to make us more joy and happier making our mind and life better.
Thanks for bringing this idea as a book.
Congratulations.

I just like the way that this brief book appropriately examines the concepts of death and lamenting in a really basic way. I praise the author's contemplations of planning youthful kids approximately the unforgiving substances of life. Congrats on BOTD!
