Product Description
by Winslow J. Furber (Author)
Tim Reaper is not like the other kids. In fact, everything he touches, from the grass beneath his bony feet to the flowers he longs to sniff, wither at his touch. Tim feels sad and alone until a chance meeting with a sick old porcupine reveals that what makes him different from everyone else is actually what makes him special to others.
This nonsecular tale of a young reaper's coming to grips with the reality of death will give families a chance to introduce the subject of death, be it a pet or family member.
Tim Reaper's choice to accept his peculiar differences and adapt his world to work within his own boundaries also speaks to other abled people of all ages.
An ending that introduces death with dignity, all tied up in a healthy and fun story line with nonfrightening characters, will help parents communicate these varied and difficult-to-broach subjects with family members of all ages.
