RIP Corey: My Friend Died and It Sucks! - Tapa dura

Sinopsis

DEATH is part of life. Let's PREPARE our young people...ALL of them.

What do we do when someone we love dies? How do we help someone we love deal with their grief?

Finally, a self-help book in the form of a GRAPHIC NOVEL for readers of all abilities that does not overwhelm, so teens and young adults will actually open it, look at it, and find the support they need to process, talk about, and heal their grief.

This fictional story, based an a TRUE STORY, follows high school senior, Sam, who is grieving the unexpected death of their best friend, Corey, following his 50 day hospital stay, and must now find a way through their new reality.

With a 1st-2nd grade reading level and engaging images, this short graphic novel will have bereaved young people feeling heard, supported, and loved, without overwhelming, lecturing, explaining death, or discussing religious beliefs.

This is HOW we start DIFFICULT CONVERSATIONS!

Studies show if a teen has no one to talk to about losing someone they love, they are at risk for behaviors like self-harm, addiction, and suicide. We can help our middle grade and high schoolers' social emotional learning (SEL) by supporting their mental health needs at this difficult time. Students can also learn how to help their friends who have lost someone they love.

Self-help that's more COOL and less textbook!

It's extremely helpful, but it doesn't feel like "work."

No home or school should be without this ESSENTIAL RESOURCE!
