Take My Hand
by Sharon Marshall Lockett

Your family is fragile, in the midst of grieving the loss of a loved one. Yet there is one particularly vulnerable mourner you must not overlook: your child. Children don't understand death and are confused by their feelings and questions.: What is heaven like? Did I cause my grandma to die? If I talk about it, will it make you too sad? And the ultimate question: Why? This book offers:

• Answers not only to your child's questions, but to yours, such as: Should I take my child to the viewing? Should my child see my tears? How do I answer my child's questions when they cause me, or others, pain?
• Practical suggestions for dealing with the common effects of grief on children
• How to recognize and respond to hidden grief in your child
• Biblical insights into the grief process
• A reflection from Marshall's now grown son, Jeff Johnson, at the end of each chapter

Life is not fair. Sharon and her son Jeff had to face death too soon, the death of an infant. But . . . God is good. From their story, you will find healing, strength, and wisdom. Every parent, grandparent, and pastor will want a copy of this insightful, tender book. — Robert H. Schuller

At any given time, between 30% and 100% of our students can be somewhere in the grief process. When they are in crisis, their behavior and their capacity to learn changes. Our techniques for reaching them must change too.

Every teacher should have a copy. This book offers:

• Understanding grief reactions - describes the grief process and how our students are affected
• Principles for helping - offers practical guidelines for helping those students and colleagues who are in the process of grieving
• Guidance tools - helps schools implement support structures which reinforce academics while recognizing the needs of those who are in grief
• Guidelines and curriculum - offers help to the classroom teacher and those leading support groups for children stuck in grief
