One bug promises to come back and tell the others where he went and why, but is unable to fulfil his promise as he becomes a dragonfly when he surfaces and can no longer swim back down to the water bugs.

Useful to adults as a tool to help adults answer children's questions about death. Colouring book with text. Audience: child 4 - 8, adult caregivers, professionals | ||
