                                                          Where Do We Go?: The Good Grief Book
The age old question, one that pops up time and time again. Where Do We Go once we leave this earth , What happens to us when we die?
Author James Weinsier along with Illustrator Cliff Beaman have created a Picture Book called "Where Do We Go".

Review : Where Do We Go ? - James Weinsier - 2008

Where Do We Go ? is a child's look at Heaven and what happens after we die . This is an age-old question that many are asked over and over again especially when a loved one passes and for a child a loved one can also include a pet dog, fish or cat etc.......
James picture book depicts the child's version of Heaven wonderfully from Rainbow Water Slides , to huge leaf piles to jump into. It looks like the most wonderful place on earth.
One thing that I loved about Where Do We Go is that it doesn't literally talk about Dying and where do we go when I die but it holds the underlining theme of that , so if a child was too read the book he/she could admire the pictures and listen to the story without having the words death/dying shoved down his/her throat.
The Pictures and graphics are amazingly well-done and are not too crowded and demonstrate each page perfectly. This book can be read to a little one as well or even in a Toddler Time setting as the words per page are roughly 20-40 which means that it is only a 5-10minute read which allows the book to hold the reader's attention.
