Author, children’s grief advocate, and fourth-grader Bryce Fields gives voice to grieving children with his new book, What This Kid Wants Adults to Know About Grief – a guidebook for adults who are caring for “little hurting hearts.”
How adults can better connect with and help grieving kids is a question that has plagued many parents, teachers, and other adults. Many other books have attempted to help answer this important question, but what has been glaringly absent from the dialogue is a child’s perspective — until now.

What This Kid Wants Adults to Know About Grief contains candid insights and an array of talking points to open up a dialogue between adults and kids so that the care and healing process can be more collaborative.
One in 29 children have been bereaved by the loss of a parent or sibling and this one-of-a-kind book gives insight directly from the heart of one of those children.
“When Bryce approached me to help grieving children over a year ago, I had no idea it would turn into this,” says Bradley Vinson, Bryce’s grandfather, affectionally known as PawPaw. “We (adults) have to realize if they’re old enough to love, they’re old enough to grieve, and they have a voice that needs to be heard when it comes to helping them heal.”
