Kudos to Mary Plouffe, Ph.D. not just for writing this book about the aftermath of her sister's death, but also for helping her niece adjust to the absence from ages 3-15 and beyond. This is an important addition to the children's bereavement field. Highly recommended."--Hope Edelman, author of Motherless Daughters "A beautiful, courageously honest book . . . In I Know It in My Heart , Dr. Plouffe, a clinical psychologist, masterfully interweaves her own grief for her sister's death with her niece's, while educating readers as to the emotional and psychological nature of adult and childhood loss.

Simpson, Ph.D., FT, Bereavement Care Specialist, founder of The Mourning Star Center for Grieving Children, and author of The Space Between: A Memoir of Mother-Daughter Love at the End of Life "Because we are mortal, love always turns to grief; but honest remembering, of the kind Mary Plouffe does here, restores it to its true nature.

Her evident experience as a psychologist adds authority to a universal story in a deep and tender way . . . a noteworthy, compassionate companion, eloquent and reassuring." --Anne Lynch, Director, Maine Center for Grieving Children"Mary Plouffe's love for her late sister lives on in the close relationship she built with her niece after their mutual great loss, just as it lives on in I Know it in My Heart , a book that so poignantly bows to the often-unacknowledged pain suffered by a grieving sibling, and the life-altering loss experienced by a young child."--Suzanne Strempek Shea, author of Songs from a Lead Lined Room , This is Paradise , and Sundays in America "A searing, beautifully written story of unfathomable grief and unbreakable family bonds.

Synopsis
A three-week adventure becomes a tragic dilemma for a loving sister, a motherless child, and a terrified father facing unimaginable loss together and using their relationships with one another to survive. I Know It In My Heart: Walking through Grief with a Child explores the impact of early parental loss, the evolution of grief from toddler to teenager, and the devastation of adult sibling loss. Told by Mary E. Plouffe--a grieving sister who is also a psychologist--the story is more than a memoir; it is an exploration of childhood and adult grief, and how family relationships can weave them into healing. Parents, therapists, and anyone else who wants to see loss though the eyes of a child will find useful information here for guiding children through loss, and understanding how those losses impact them as they grow. Narrated with professional wisdom steeped in personal pain, I Know It In My Heart brings us all a step closer to understanding, resilience, and healing., Every child will experience loss; every adult wants to know how to help. I Know It In My Heart: Walking through Grief with a Child uses one family's tragic loss to tell the story of childhood grief--its expression and its evolution--from ages three to fifteen., A Three-Week Adventure becomes a tragic dilemma for a loving sister, a tiny child, and a terrified father. This is a story of childhood and adult grief woven into resilience, told with professional wisdom steeped in personal pain. Book jacket.

    My books arrived today and I absolutely love them. The seller had them packed well, they came exactly as described, actually look almost new and over a hundred years old. They were shipped fast and I got them at a great price. Very highly recommend this seller.

    Ordered a hardcover edition of this book. Seller accidentally sent paper back version. When I pointed out the error, the Seller immediately refunded my money. Problems arise. This Seller handled the mistake perfectly. Thank you, Seller! A++++
