With twenty educators contributing ideas piloted with children of different abilities and backgrounds in their care, 'Good Grief'has been designed to explore and demystify the experience of loss - in different contexts - within the framework of the National Curriculum.

This second edition has been updated and revised, to include a new chapter on the effects of disasters on children. Suitable for all professionals, carers and parents, both books are activity based. Good Grief 1 facilitates the use of children's own experiences and encouraging improvisation and extension. Primarily designed for mixed ability secondary and adult education, Good Grief 2 will also be invaluable for many other statutory, professional and community organisations.
