This is another great book for helping young children understand the concept of death and grief.

On one of her visits, Xiao Le's grandma passes away.

"Xiao Le's grandmother lives in a faraway village. A visit with Grandma is always a special event, but this time she is frail. With encouragement from his mom, Xiao Le plays with and helps Grandma. When Grandma dies shortly thereafter, Xiao Le comforts his mom--reminding her that when it rains, Grandma is washing her clothes in the sky ... and that although the Perfume Village in heaven cannot be reached by train, it can be accessed by the heart. Fang Suzhen's moving story, with stunning illustrations by Sonja Danowski, is a powerful reminder that love transcends all."-- Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |

One thing I did like a lot about the book was the illustrations in the book are very real and very distinct pictures. For example, when the grandmother is sick, you can see in the picture that she is very tired and very grey, which is a sign of dying as well.
The second thing that I did like about this book was the writing. The little boy goes to see his grandmother who is sick but not fully aware of what is going on. However, when the little boy sees his mother crying, he starts to understand. I also like that the author didn’t say “died” she said “never saw her again” and I think that is a way of saying someone died without actually saying “died.”
I think the big idea of this book is about death and how to cope with it. I believe that this is the big idea because the little boy had to find a way to accept the death of his grandmother and not in a grieving way but understanding and learning about something that is much bigger than us. ( )
