Will My Cat Eat My Eyeballs?: Big Questions from Tiny Mortals About Death

Good info for forensic as well as a bit about cutural aspects. Funny way of telling about dead bodies! Goodone

A quick read which stays interesting till the end. Lots of facts that I didn't know about. A little more about non-Western cultures and what happens to dead bodies in those cases could be a nice extension to this book.

Caitlin writes like she talks like she posts. I adore this glamazon of a woman who sweeps away the dust and ashes from the old world of death with a beautiful Hawaiian broom and gets stuck in there.With absolutely no space or desire to shock or provoke, Caitlin, our Magnificent Mortician writes about death in such a way that calms the post mortem waters of our fears, soothes the trembling parents worries about answering those icky or weird questions children ask about the Big D. And they ask a few curly ones....Death has replaced sex in our culture as the Great Big Unmentionable Subject. Caitlin is bringing it, kicking and screaming by the scruff of the neck ( and us with it) back into the light, in her great books.Read them all. I cannot recommend them highly enough. Really. Then watch her YouTube Channel. It’s informative, entertaining and well done. If I lived in the States, I would have Caitlin as my Death Doula. The woman is a treasure, she is normalising death, giving it beauty and personal meaning. Taking it away from cookie cutter, hugely costly embalming & expensive casket funerals to home based, family designed and planned eco burials.Just read the books. You won’t regret it. Thank me later.

I love Caitlin’s YouTube channel, and decided to buy all her books. This one was nothing new to me (the facts), but I love the humor. And the illustrations!

Livre tres rigolo sur un sujet assez difficile. J'ai bien aimé !

It's funny and it helps you learn a lot about death!

As a loyal deathling of many years standing, I've been following Caitlins' YouTube channel for years. Her first two books are excellent reads, full of fascinating facts and tales. I can highly recommend them.This on the other hand, is clearly aimed at a younger audience, but for heaven's sake don't let that put you off!! Her style is chatty(?) VERY accessible and easy to read. Frankly, I enjoy her writing so much, I never think the book is long enough!! The questions are answered in a clear manner and the layout is such that you can read a question and answer in a few minutes, put it down and move on whilst absorbing what you've learned. Who am I kidding! Only if you've got more willpower than I have! 😂This book is an excellent addition to ANY library, kids or not. It goes perfectly with the authors' goal of demystifying death and funerals, something I heartily condone. I cannot recommend this book, or, for that matter, this author highly enough! Buy it, you seriously won't regret it!!
