We Need to Talk About Death: An IMPORTANT Book About Grief, Celebrations, and Love

描述

這是一本關於死亡教育的書籍，幫助悲傷的孩子們了解我們死後會發生什麽，並了解世界各地人們用來紀念死者的傳統。死亡是生命的重要組成部分，但它是最難談論的事情之一——對成年人和孩子來說都是如此。

歷史學家兼博物館館長薩拉·查韋斯決心創作一本激發人們對死亡的好奇的書，而不是恐懼和羞恥。

An educational book that helps grieving children understand what happens when we die, and celebrates the traditions people around the world use to honour the dead.

Death is an important part of life, and yet it is one of the hardest things to talk about – for adults as well as children. Historian and museum curator Sarah Chavez is determined to create a book that sparks wonder and curiosity about dying, instead of fear and shame.

In this informative book, illustrated by Annika Le Large, children will marvel at the flowers different cultures use to represent death. They will find out about eco-friendly burials, learn how to wrap a mummy, and go beneath the streets of Paris to witness skull-lined catacombs! Readers will also ride a buffalo alongside Yama, the Hindu god of death, come face-to-face with the terracotta army a Chinese emperor built to escort him to the afterlife, and party in the streets to celebrate the Day of the Dead in Mexico.
