My niece is going to be 4 in August, she's very clever and switched on. Her dad (bil) died suddenly last weekend and we are wondering if anyone can recommend a book for her or for SIL to read to her?
Thank you.

I recommend dragonflies and water bugs. I used it with my children when their papa died. It has a good way of explaining things in a way children can relate to.

Recommending the charity https://www.winstonswish.org/ for advice, support and resources. They offer counselling and a helpline too.

Badger's parting gift is beautiful but is more for the loss of an older person at the end of their life..
The Invisible String is lovely and my absolute favourite is The Day the Sea went out and never came back. It helps me as an adult even, it is wonderful. However it is very very raw and new so I'd be very slow with any of this as yet (I'm a play therapist). Rabbityness is another nice one.
I'm sorry for this sad and sudden loss.
