Tree is a gentle story of loss that helps children to learn how to say goodbye and process grief.
Tree is the much-loved centre piece of the community. But one day Curly and Loppy notice that Tree’s leaves are starting to fall — at the wrong time of year — and Tree’s bark is flaking.
It’s Tree’s time to leave. Fortunately Curly is able to teach Loppy how to accept that Tree is leaving, say goodbye, and commemorate Tree’s life.
A valuable resource for teachers and librarians, as well as parents, wanting to help children to cope with loss and move through grief. Written by an experienced, practising clinical psychologist.
