This just might be the best Christmas present your daughter could receive this year. It touches on a lot of topics that are often difficult to handle. Man could I have used a book like this when my kids lost their grandfather and then two years later their aunt. Bad things happen and it sure would help to know how to handle them. So, if you do pick up the book, I would read it as fast as I can… just to brush up! And then wrap it up for under the Christmas tree.

Teenagers definitely have a lot to deal with. This looks like a good tool for them.
