It is very difficult to try to help children understand death. It is something that we all have to deal with someday. Saying Goodbye to Grandma is about a family dealing with the aging and death of their dear grandmother, mother to Emily's mother. You can modify this to your family's beliefs. It is from a Christian perspective. Emily learns that all living things, including our family members will someday die and go to heaven. The nest of robins that are outside Grandma's window helps her mother and father explain the process of birth, life and death. They compare the broken egg shells with the part of our body that is no longer living, and the birds flying up to heaven as the part of us that continues to live forever with Jesus in Heaven.

Grace says goodbye to Grandmother in this touching book about love and loss. Grandmother lives with Grace’s family. She teaches her how to measure water for rice. She tells her stories about growing up in China and together they savor the flavors of her childhood. Grandmother says goodbye when she drops Grace off at school every morning and hello when she picks her up at the end of the day. Suddenly, Grandmother stops walking Grace to and from school, and the door to her room stays closed. Father comes home early to make dinner, but the rice bowls stay full. One day, Grandmother’s room is empty. And soon after, she is buried. After the funeral, Grace’s mom turns on all the outside lights so that Grandmother’s spirit can find its way home for one final goodbye. Carmen Mok’s gentle illustrations show the love between a child and her grandmother in this story that will resonate with anyone who has lost a loved one.
