A Terrible Thing Happened Reviews

"An unqualified success. These illustrations serve the text extremely well, adding welcome touches of humor to the exposition of this very serious subject."--Booklist

"The book also contains 15 incredibly helpful tips for parents and caregivers on how to help a child process a traumatic event. For the unfortunate situation where a child needs to work through a trauma--witnessing a car accident, fire or tornado, or violence, assault or suicide--this book is a great resource. Reading about Sherman can help a child feel less alone, and the suggestions in the afterword can guide adults into helping a child move through the grief."-- Momentous Institute
