Elsie waits at the classroom door for her best friend to arrive every day. One day Daisy doesn't arrive in school. All the grown-ups are crying; they are sad because Daisy has died. Elsie will never see her friend again. Elsie isn't sad though, she is cross with her friend for not saying goodbye.Goodbye Daisy is based on Stephanie Nimmo's own experiences of explaining to her daughter Daisy's friends that Daisy had died. Aimed mainly at children with profound learning disabilities it is also a heart-warming social story and support guide about the death of a school friend that will support help parents, carers and professionals support a child through their loss and grief.
