Omgaan met rouw en verlies kan overweldigend zijn, en de juiste woorden vinden om er met onze kinderen over te praten, voelt soms onmogelijk. Het verhaal van Sprite helpt je een beginpunt te vinden terwijl je een kind begeleidt bij het verwerken van verlies.
De meesten van ons zijn niet opgegroeid met het leren praten over rouw of het begrijpen van de invloed ervan op ons lichaam, onze geest en emoties. Dit interactieve kartonboek is een hulpmiddel om dat moeilijke gesprek op gang te brengen. Kinderen leren dat ze niet alleen zijn, en hoewel dit moment uitdagend is, zal de herinnering aan de dierbare altijd bij hen blijven, waar ze ook gaan.
