| Summary |
"Psychic medium Hollister Rand specializes in talking to kids who have died. No one finds death more inexplicable than a parent who has lost their child, thus no group of spirits are more motivated to make sense of it all for those they've left behind than the young ones. The need to assure family and friends that they really are okay has made these kids determined and effective communicators. Through her, young spirits are now able to talk freely about how to make sense of murder, suicide and accidental deaths (even those that occurred at the hands of loved ones). They also discuss the different ways relationships on both sides can be mended, and how the inter-generational cycle of abuse and addiction can be stopped once and for all. They introduce us to the concept of 'joy guides'--miscarried and aborted children who actually help those they've left behind move forward. The comments they share in this uniquely comforting and enlightening book will surprise, inform, and inspire. Not only do they answer our many questions about death, they also succeed in revealing incredibly valuable tips for living a better life while on earth too"-- Provided by publisher. |
