Talking about death with your child

10 11 As Duck got closer to the tank, he couldn’t see Fish swimming around. ‘Where’s Fish?’, Duck thought. He went right up to the tank and as he got closer he could see Fish floating on top of the water. Duck thought this was a bit strange. He had never seen Fish like this before, what could be the matter? Duck gave Fish a little poke. ‘Wake up Fish’, said Duck as he thought Fish might be asleep. Fish didn’t move. FISH Duck was getting a bit worried now. He poked Fish again, and shouted this time, ‘WAKE UP FISH!’ Fish still didn’t move. Duck was now very worried. ‘What was the matter with Fish?’, he thought. He shouted very loudly for his Mom to come; she did as quickly as she could, but it seemed to take ages. Mom came into the kitchen, carrying Prickles. She saw Fish floating, with Duck standing by the side of the tank looking very worried indeed.
