I’ve had some lovely feedback about the book, especially from psychologists and social workers who think it should be included in university courses for anyone involved in the care of young people whose grief is largely misunderstood. And - your work and that of the proofreader and typesetter still receives praise - people most impressed that they can’t find any errors. Brilliant editing, great typesetting, excellent proofreading - what more can I say? Many many thanks. Dianne McKissock
