Since then, we have created a series of other books, including When Mum Died, and When Someone Dies, to help ease the taboo around opening up about grief, and to empower people to talk with people with learning disabilities about death. bit.ly/3VW1NXr

It's #NationalGriefAwarenessWeek, so we wanted to #ShineALight on our picture stories about grief, death, and dying. Talking about grief is hard. Our books use pictures, not words, of people who are grieving, opening up conversations about our feelings.
