Laurice’s Adventures of a Wizard:

My Friend, Jenny, and The Wizard

Written and Illustrated by Janice Elizabeth Williams

          After a young rabbit loses a loved one, she finds hope and healing

through her friendship with a Wizard and his delightful companions.  

 

          The loss of a loved one can be devastating.  Children may have a wide range of emotional reactions to a loss, such as sadness, fear, anger, denial, confusion and uncertainty.

 

          Many young children have difficulty understanding the concept of death, and they may not understand why their loved one has not come back.  In some cases, children may become confused.  They may think that it was their fault, or that they did something bad which caused their loved one to abandon them.

 

          Many parents feel uncertain about how to talk with their child about the loss of a family member, friend, or a beloved pet.  It can be particularly difficult for parents to talk with their child, when they are also going through a mourning process.

 

          One of the primary purposes of this book is to help parents to talk with their children and encourage them to express their feelings about a painful loss.
