All human beings experience loss and death as well as the grief associated with these experiences, so it is important for children and adolescents to understand that death is inevitable. They must learn to accept loss and to learn ways to cope with their grief. In order to help children through their pain, parents and caregivers need access to the proper resources that will help them discuss these topics, and educational professionals need reliable resources for creating courses of study on these subjects. In this volume, Alice Crosetto and Rajinder Garcha identify hundreds of resources that will help educators, professionals, parents, siblings, guardians, and students learn about coping with the loss of a loved one and the grief process.

Chapters in this volume include fiction and non-fiction titles about the loss/death of a family member, a friend, and a pet, as well as general reference resources, curricular resources, and websites. Annotations provide complete bibliographical descriptions of the entries, and each entry is identified with the grade levels for which it is best suited.
