Description

"One summer's day we started a business called Funerals Ltd., to help all the poor dead animals in the world. Esther did the digging, I wrote the poems, and Esther's little brother, Puttie, cried."

Early readers will love the dry humor and wonderfully rounded story of All the Dear Little Animals. Nilsson perfectly captures the child's perspective, balancing compassion and humor. This is a very funny story about a topic that touches all of us.

Reminds me of when I was young and my friends and I buried critters of ours, or found ones, in our cemetery! Certainly gave me a bit of a laugh! But, sweet story for grieving children. Or explaining death to young ones. I love foreign books in translation, a little insight into other cultures and how they see things. I loved the illustrations. Just so sweet! I'd get this as a gift to add to a child's collection.

This book is great for children struggling with death and loss, not so great if they have not experienced death or loss. Illustrations are done well and wording is easy for children to understand.
