Rating based on writing and illustration quality. Personally, it’s more of a one to two star because of the complete lack of faith or hope. If you have no hope of life after death, no hope of there being more than this life, this would be a good book to talk about death with your children. I used it as a launchpad to discuss with my 7 year old what the author left out and why we do not grieve as the people in this story do. But I do appreciate an author willing to tackle the idea that children die, not just adults.

Denne boka ga meg livslang vannskrekk. Den gjør sikkert jobben når det kommer til å lære barn om å bearbeide sorg og om døden, men den gjorde en grusom tabbe i å ta for lett på dødsøyeblikket. Hvorfor druknet Rune?

ÅÅÅ, denne boka klarer jeg ikke gi antall stjerner. Wenche Øyens akvareller har satt traumer i mangt et barnesinn på åttitallet. Marit Kaldhol skrev seg inn som mester på sosialrealisme for barn som tidligere hadde oppstått på 70-tallet med bla. "Slik var det da Ola.." - bøkene. Godt og væl for unga som trenger bearbeiding, men skygg for all del unna for de som foreløpig lever i bobla fortsatt!

Zeer triest, maar ik denk dat het ouders kan helpen als ze hun kind moeten bijstaan in het verwerken van de dood.
