Rosie- Coming to Terms with the Death of a Siblingby Stephanie Jeffs and Jacqui Thomas Jenny’s sister Rosie had been ill for some time and Jenny hoped she would be better soon. She remembered all the happy times when they played together, but now Rosie spent nearly all the time in bed, and couldn’t go on outings with her sister. Their Mum had to explain to her that Rosie was not going to get better. Jenny was very sad, but crept up to her sister’s room, and said a prayer to Jesus asking him to take care of Rosie. Nothing frightening or dramatic in this story, just gentle loving, to help a young child understand. Engaging illustrations help the story along. Review by Mary Bartholomew (28/01/05) |
