When Good-Bye Is Forever

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Sheila Moxley. Rock begins her brief essay about death by explaining that some separations are temporary but that others, like death, last forever. She describes heaven as a place "beyond what we can fully understand," where we can be together with loved ones for eternity. The illustrations are calming and adults may find the material helpful, but the tone of the writing is distancing.
