"I'm a kid who likes when there are answers to my questions." In this one sentence, Gaines and Polsky eloquently and succinctly sum up the reason why death and dying can be such hard concepts for children with ASD and social skills issues, as well as for kids who are just concrete thinkers. The authors have written a thoughtful, multi-faceted resource that allows children and parents to work through grief together. I Have a Question will help children understand not only what death and dying means, but also teach them that there's no one right reaction to it. -- Amanda Morin, Writer/Expert at and author of The Everything Parent's Guide to Special Education In the wake of my husband's unexpected death, I searched for a book to help me talk about grief with my 8 year old son with Autism.
