Written by Bryan Mellone. Illustrated by Robert Ingpen.

"A gentle, heartfelt and comforting guide to help children navigate the wonders of existence, from the joyful beginnings to the peaceful endings. Have you ever wondered why a butterfly lives for only a few weeks? Or why a tree lives for hundreds of year? You may have been sad when someone in your family, or a favourite pet, became sick and died. There is a beginning and an ending to everything that is alive. In between is a lifetime. Dying is a much a part of living as being born.

Discussing lifecycles in a way that is comprehensible and comforting for young readers, Beginnings and Endings with Lifetimes in Between is an essential resource to explain the concept of life and death to children in a sensitive and understandable manner. Through Robert Ingpen's captivating illustrations, children can visualize and comprehend the abstract concepts of life and death."
