I loved this book when I read it more than ten years ago and have given it to many people who now count it among their favorites

I have been a professional grief counselor and educator for more than 22 years and have read hundreds of books on grief. There are so many books which are much better than this both in terms of enlightening and inspiring a grieving person. I think it has done as well as it has only because the author was already well known and had a personal following.
