A friend to journey with

My friend Ben, thank you so much for this wonderful tool to take on my journey. It has been a blessing to read with my six year old grandaughter, she is reading some and she noticed tonight that Melissa was not gray toward the end of the book, she understands what she was going thru. All three of the books have been a wonder addition to our
home.
I just purchased a set as a gift for someone who is going into private practice and I think this would be a wonder addition to his library.

Incredibly Lonely, That's Me

My nine year old daughter has had to learn first hand how it feels to lose a sister. She has read "Incredibly Lonley, That's Me" and has shared the book with her friends, probably in hopes that they will understand how she feels about the loss of her loved one. We have had open and honest discussions about her feelings and how she understands some of the feelings that the girl in the story talks about. I would recommend this book to be read and shared with children who have experienced a significant loss.

Don't Be Fooled!

This book is a gem - a valuable addition to any library. Some might suspect it is a children's book, and indeed, it can be. However, I have been moved by the number of older folks who have responded positively to the themes and imagery in this honest, yet hopeful, look at grief. Thank you to Ben and Dick for creating this inspiring work. I've used it with a group of teenagers most recently, and they jumped into the story as if it were there own. Highly recommended; don't miss this opportunity!

Wonderful book for a school library!

School Administrators: As a retired school administrator I highly recommend this book as being an appropriate selection for your school's resource center. The manifestation of grief often comes unexpectedly. This would be a wonderful resource book to have on hand to share with a student who needs reassurance that the feelings they are experiencing are 'normal'. The book is also an appropriate selection for adults.

If you are wishing to express your appreciation to a teacher, administrator, or school, this would be an appropriate end-of-the-school-year gift.

fantastic!

This is the third book we've bought in the Express Yourself series and we continue to be blown away by how fantastic these books are in helping people work through all of the feelings that come upon us during times of loss and death. We have shared all of them with friends who have experienced the grieving process and I would agree with other reviews that they are helpful for children and adults alike. The artistry and imagery really bring the stories to life. What a well done series!!

Allow us to introduce you to one of our grieving friends: a young lady who dealt with and continues to deal with loneliness. She lost her "big sister" when she was only nine and was very lonely when our paths crossed. In listening to her, I felt her loneliness and, as I continued to listen, I observed a rainbow of hope.

In 2005, her mother nominated Hendricks Regional Health for The Compassionate Friends' Compassionate Employer award. This poem was written honoring her insightful grief work and was first read when the hospital received the Compassionate Friends recognition. We welcome you to join with another courageous young person as you explore the world of Incredibly Lonely.

In the very center of our grief, loss or transitional times is the intense feeling of loneliness! Our world is turned upside down. How will I make it through? When, if ever, will this haunting feeling disappear? If it doesn't end, what will I do? Is there hope when dealing with this dark emotion of loneliness? Who am I now?
