Dying to ask : 38 questions from kids about death / by Duthie, Ellen,1974-; Juan, Anna,1978-; Antinori, Andrea,1992-;
Two writers and an illustrator walk into a book and find themselves with thirty-eight questions about death asked by boys and girls between five and fifteen years old. How and what will they answer? For mortal beings of all ages comes Dying to Ask, a book born out of an international project where children were invited to ask questions about death based on a series of workshops. The result? Hundreds of questions from countries all over the world. Herein lies thirty-eight questions that best represented the breadth and depth of children's interest in death and related matters, complete with psychological and scientific proofing. Thoughtful, tender, and surprisingly joyful, this illustrated book is an invitation to talk, think, and ask further questions about death. Some of the questions: Will I die? Where do we go when we die? Will we all become extinct one day? If someone you love dies, how long are you sad for? Why do people say "rest in peace" rather than "rest in fun?" Recommended for mortals of all ages. To be enjoyed alone starting at age 8 and in company starting at age 6.
