A Quarantini with a picture book about grief

The Quarantini

02-11-2020 • 31 mins

In this first episode of season 4, and as the UK heads back into lockdown, we think about grief.

In the wake of Bristol's Good Grief Festival, we talk to Eva Hibbs author of a picture book called Where is Uncle AL? and together with illustrator Sarah Harrison, they discuss how the book came about, why we need to get better at talking about death in a more straightforward way and how Covid may be changing our approach to grief.
