Query: Helping a child cope with death? This is THE book!

I couldn't disagree more with the negative reviewers of this book who refer to it as frightening, too sad or not helpful to young children. To the contrary! I bought this book to help my 4-1/2 year old daughter come to grips with our dying pet, and it did just that. While this book is not aimed at dealing with the death of animals, it offers a clear, simple, sensitive explanation about death and how to cope with it. The writing is straight forward and the illustrations are charming. Highly recommend this book over others dealing with same topic. Grateful to finally find a book without an over-bearing religious slant.As an aside, if you're looking for books to help a child grieving the loss of a pet, may I also suggest: "Cat Heaven" by Cynthia Rylant and "The Tenth Good Thing About Barney" by Judith Viorst.
