Introduces children to the realities of natural disasters, terrorism and other forms of tragedy.
In age-appropriate language and tone, Dr. Roberts explains what tragedy is, the feelings it may create and how to manage those feelings. She also emphasizes the good that can come out of tragedy, looking at how people help one another in caring, compassionate and heroic ways. The book's question-and-answer format will help parents have a meaningful conversation about these difficult topics with their children and equip parents to better handle questions that arise when children are exposed to the news.
About the Authors:
Dr. Jillian Roberts is a child psychologist, author and research professor at the University of Victoria, as well as a mother of three. Recognized as one of Canada’s leading voices in child psychology, she is frequently sought by journalists for her expert insights. She also authors a dedicated monthly mental health column for The Globe and Mail, where she examines issues that shape the well-being of children and families. Dr. Roberts is the author of two acclaimed and bestselling children’s book series. Her Just Enough series helps young children (ages 3–6) explore foundational topics such as birth, diversity, and belonging, while The World Around Us series introduces children (ages 5–8) to complex social issues including poverty, environmental stewardship, and online safety. She divides her time between Victoria, British Columbia, and the North Shore of Prince Edward Island.
Jane Heinrichs is a children's book writer and illustrator. She is the author/illustrator of the hybrid graphic novel Every Home Needs An Elephant. Jane starts her day at a clear desk with her huge sketchbook (for books) and her tiny sketchbook (for daily drawings) but usually ends up sitting on the floor, surrounded by a collection of paints, pencils and papers. She lives in the UK with her family.
