For children who experience grief, it’s hard to know how to move forward. After experiencing loss — through injury in “It’s All or Nothing, Vale” by Andrea Beatriz Arango, parental loss in “The Trouble with Heroes” by Kate Messner, and a friend’s death in “All the Blues in the Sky” by Renée Watson — characters learn to heal. Moderated by Hena Khan.
