Book Review of Balloons for Trevor: Understanding Death (Comforting Little Hearts Series)

Balloons for Trevor: Understanding Death (Comforting Little Hearts Series)
reviewed on


Summary from backcover:

When Trevor passes away, his best friend doesn't understand why his tummy hurts, why the adults keep crying and why he can't go to heaven right now, too.

This book helps children deal with death--especially the death of a peer--by discussing what happens inside them when someone dies. It also point the entire family to hope in Jesus Christ, and how, because of His sacrifice, we celebrate, even during such a sad time.

How parents and children deal with difficult moments for their family makes a big difference in the child's life. The "Comforting Little Hearts" series has been developed to help parents more effectively discuss important issues with their children from a Christ-centered perspective.
