Can the Sad Come Out? is written for children and their families. It is a tool to help parents share with their chil- dren about death and dying in a way that is not threatening. The book has brought comfort to families who have used her book. It has been helpful with people of all ages and is a book that should be in every family’s library. If you think you don’t need it now, you will.
In the book, Laurie gives parents and adults who are dealing with this difficult situ - ation a sense of comfort through compassionate explanation and engaging illustra- tions. It answers the question: Why do living things have to die? What happens to our bodies when we die? How do we get to heaven when we die? Will I ever feel happy again?
Answering these concerns as adults may be tough, especially if we are also grieving the loss. However, the book will provide the framework for effectively discussing these important questions with children, as well as how to begin a discussion about why living things must die, what happens to our physical bodies when we die, and how God transforms us into something even more beautiful after we die—like a caterpillar metamorphosizing into a butterfly.
