Mary Davila - 'Grandpa's Tent'

This book for families was written by two Episcopal priests—and mothers. It is a companion for children and families as they experience death, perhaps for the first time. Grandpa's Tent explains what the Bible says about death—and life after death—and walks gently and honestly through the process of saying goodbye, attending the funeral, and grieving a loved one. The book also includes helpful talking points for adults to discuss death with children, ages 5-10.  

The visiting author, Rev. Mary Davila, is Assistant Rector at Christ Church (Episcopal).
