The Worries: Leo Says Goodbye

Author and illustrator: Jion Sheibani

Emotions connected to grief are personified in this short early reader, making them easier to explore and talk about. With additional input from a respected bereavement charity, this is an excellent book for introducing the stages of grief and starting difficult conversations with children. Blue monochrome illustrations add humour and poignancy.
