It shows there is light at the end of the dark tunnel. You just have to believe. Illustrations are beautifully done and should be in everyone's home so when sadness occurs it can be reread. Highly recommend. Very thoughtful. Review: Deeply moving and beautiful - It's hard to describe what a powerful book this is. A friend who lost her son in a car accident shared this book with me and halfway through, I had tears in my eyes, which didn't stop until well after the story was over. I lost three of my grandparents in recent years, and it's still been hard for me to think of any of them without hurting. This book changed all of that in an instant. "The Next Place" reads like a letter written by one who has died to a loved one left behind. It is a poem, and the words flow together beautifully. The illustrations capture the feel of the words on each page and take you along on a peaceful journey as you turn the pages. The message is poignant and precious, and is written in the voice of a person who is still very much alive and thriving, just in a different way - one that is far superior to the limitations of life in a human body. It does not lean toward any specific religion, yet is appropriate for people of all faiths, and all ages. I have found this book to be such a great comfort that I ordered additional copies as Christmas gifts (as well as Mr. Hanson's "Paw Prints in the Stars" book for those who have lost a beloved pet). I couldn't even wait for Christmas and gave them away already - and all have been well received. Thank you so much, Mr. Hanson, for sharing such a beautiful message with the world in "The Next Place." You have changed the way that I remember my grandparents and have given me a solid foundation for coping with other losses I'll face in my life. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | 0931674328 | | Best Sellers Rank | #18,203 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #22 in Christian Death & Grief #59 in Love & Loss #65 in Grief & Bereavement | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 4.8 out of 5 stars (1,475) | | Dimensions | 9.1 x 0.6 x 11.2 inches | | Edition | First Edition | | Grade level | Kindergarten - 2 | | ISBN-10 | 9780931674327 | | ISBN-13 | 978-0931674327 | | Item Weight | 1.05 pounds | | Language | English | | Print length | 36 pages | | Publication date | August 5, 2002 | | Publisher | Waldman House Press | | Reading age | 5+ years, from customers | ## Images ![The Next Place - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91Y-KsAmMxL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent read. *by G***I on February 20, 2026* Excellent read and very comforting for anyone going through a traumatic time.
