Coping With the Death of a Brother or Sister

Nothing seems as difficult to face as a death in the family, but for young people, facing the death of a sibling is among the most painful of life's struggles. Ruiz speaks sympathetically about the stages of emotional grief that children face after a loved one has died, and utilizes honest, descriptive narratives that illustrate how other young people have handled grief. Youngsters are urged to seek the support of adults, especially if rage and anger cloud their thinking.
