Produktbeschreibung

ILLUSTRATED BY Beatriz Garcia Carricondo, Cristina Clementel, Elmin Marais, Elzbieta Gorecka, Gabrielle Sharrard, Lee Percival, Lellie Lopter, Samuel McCracken, Sanghamitra Dasgupta, Sharna Webb, Yollande Posthumus Over two million babies are born sleeping every year around the world. This book is for the people who love them. When a baby is born sleeping, sometimes there is no explanation, and sometimes there are lots. This very special project brings together artists from around the world to illustrate this touching story by Lellie Lopter that gently explain stillbirth to children. Even though the author and many of the illustrators involved in this project have their own unique stories of early pregnancy loss, still birth or infant loss, they are united in their common vision to raise awareness of this global issue. This book won the Marshall Allan Hill writing competition in 2011. It has taken over a decade for the author to be brave enough to share this story. Everyone involved in the project have donated their time and talents to brining this story to life to ensure all profits from book sales can go directly to RED NOSE so they can continue to support families, fund research, and save little lives. 'My Brother, Born Sleeping is an important and developmentally appropriate tool to help children process big feelings after a difficult loss. Poignant and sensitive, a beautiful collaborative work.' J.E. Miller NEM BAEngLit.GDEd.GDPsych. 'My Brother, Born Sleeping, will touch your heart and remain with you for a long time afterwards.' TM Clark - Author 'A beautiful story... told in a positive light.' Jason & Cathy Hill - Judges of the Marshall Allan Hill writing competition 2011 'My Brother, Born Sleeping is beautifully written and illustrated. In times of grief, young children can sense the changes in their environment and their parents' emotional state. As well as experiencing a range of emotions, children's curiosity in understanding loss can make for difficult conversations when parents are experiencing their own pain. This book will go a long way in supporting those conversations." - Keren Ludski, CEO - Red Nose Australia
