Elizabeth Vercoe

The Grief book by Elizabeth Vercoe and Kerry Abramowski is an absolutely stunning collection of stories, helpful tips, tricks, rituals and strategies for young people dealing with grief.

From instructions to help young people find a suitable person to talk to about their grief to providing rituals to sharing helpful tips about what people do at funerals Elizabeth asks many key questions about the nature of grief, how people may deal with it and what some "good tricks" might be for young people who are grieving.

The book is humorous, easy to read, helpful, open and most importantly is aimed at providing young people with a tool for them to deal with their own grief.

While this book is not necessarily Christian it really needs to be read by youth workers, ministers, parents and most importantly by young people... It's a unique book with a beautiful message and an honest nature.

From the back of the book:

"A unique and compassionate guide, which gives people struggling with grief and loss the tools they need to work through their grief. Above all, Elizabeth Vercoe and Kerry Abramowski let young people know that even in their darkest hour they are not alone. It seems as though society has hoodwinked many into believing 'time heals all wounds', which is untrue. Time just passes - it takes actions to heal your heart."
