DUCK, DEATH AND THE TULIP

DUCK, DEATH AND THE TULIP

From award-winning author and illustrator, Wolf Erlbruch, comes one of the world's best children's books about grief and loss. Voted one of the 100 greatest children's books of all time by the BBC. In a curiously heart-warming and elegantly illustrated story, a duck strikes up an unlikely friendship with Death.

Duck and Death play together and discuss big questions. Death, dressed in a dressing gown and slippers, is sympathetic and kind and will be duck’s companion until the end. “I’m cold,” she said one evening.

“Will you warm me a little?” Snowflakes drifted down. Something had happened. Death looked at the duck.

She’d stopped breathing. She lay quite still. Explaining the topic of death in a way that is honest, lightly philosophical and with gentle humor, this enchanting book has been translated into multiple languages, adapted into an animated movie and short film and performed on stages worldwide.

Wolf Erlbruch received the Hans Christian Andersen Medal in 2006 and was the winner of the Astrid Lindgren Memorial Award in 2017. Tender and direct, this is an excellent tool for helping to explain and talk about death, dying and bereavement with childrenLoved by adults and children, parents and grandparents, also suitable for schools, grief centers and counsellors Praise for Duck, Death and the Tulip “The gold standard of picture books about death is Duck, Death and the Tulip…It’s hard to describe how this extraordinarily tender book manages to be both heartbreaking and comforting, but it does."—The New York Times "The most extraordinary picture book I’ve seen in many a year. A duck becomes friends with Death, and it’s the most natural thing in the world.

Trust me, adults get far more weirded out by this book than children ever do. Amazing."—Patrick Ness, Time Out London "The most moving book I’ve read this year is the German picture book Duck, Death and The Tulip by Wolf Erlbruch, about the strange, uneasy friendship."—Meg Rosoff, The Financial Times
