“Anyone who knows a child whose parent has died by suicide, or anyone with a loved one who has experience with suicide, will find this remarkable book of great comfort. I wish it had been available for those around me when my own mother attempted suicide (unsuccessfully) when I was seventeen. Using the most powerful and compelling medium possible—the voices of children themselves—Requarth brings this crucial issue to the fore, courageously battling the stigma that adds to the suffering of those who are already deeply wounded. This book should be required reading for mental health professionals.”

“Writing from her ‘survivor’s heart,’ Margo Requarth makes a significant contribution to the difficult and often misunderstood task of guiding child survivors through the minefield of suicide grief. I recommend this book for parents, caregivers, support group facilitators, educators, clergy, friends and mental health professionals.”
