Ryans New Beginnings

by Jo-Ann Petrucci Andrews

Overview

Ryan lives on a farm with his family, and his grandpa is his inspirational next-door neighbor. Ryan develops a close bond with the animals on the farm, but one day his family suffers the loss of their rooster. As Ryan reflects on this loss, he connects it to the loss his mom suffered when his newborn brother died. Because death is not always an easy topic to approach, Ryan's New Beginnings helps children understand death in a hopeful, developmentally appropriate way.
