book: Sudden death explained to small kids in simple words (Gilmerton EH17)
specific book: IS DADDY COMING BACK IN A MINUTE? Explaining (sudden) death in words very young children can understand. ''This honest, sensitive and beautifully illustrated picture book is designed to help explain the concept of death to children aged 3-7. Written in Alex's own words, it is based on the real-life conversations that Elke Barber had with her then three-year-old son, Alex, after the sudden death of his father. The book provides reassurance and understanding to readers through clear and honest answers to the difficult questions that can follow the death of a loved one, and carries the invaluable message that it is okay to be sad, but it is okay to be happy, too.'' Hardcover, illustrated, 40 pages. Flexible collection times, but Thursday afternoons I'm not available before 5.30pm Literally, Lili

Vintage Coal Fireplace Grate and Cover (Ravelston EH4)
This is a cast iron grate and a chrome or nickel plated ventilated front cover as pictured. There are no other components. Probabably 1930s (?) but looks older and might be Victorian. The two items together are quite heavy. It is all a bit grubby, the vent is likely to be quite stiff to operate but all in usable condition and just needs a fireplace to put it in If you reply, please give a phone number to arrange colllection, thanks

The art of home and crafts room by room/Kirstie Allsopp book (Gilmerton EH17)
KIRSTIE'S HOMEMADE HOME The art of home and crafts, room by room. by Kirstie Allsopp (2010) ''Home is about a journey the author made into a world which she thought she knew, but didn't. It's a world full of dedicated and talented people in England who make beautiful things, both traditional and modern that support the wonderful crafting heritage they have in the UK. If, like her, you have ever been caught at a yard sale or antiques market and couldn't keep control of your purse, or if you're curious and want to have a rummage for the first time, then this book is for you. It's Kirstie's experience of a world which is as vast and varied as you can possibly imagine. It's about women and men who are ensuring that handmade British things are here to stay. And it's packed with their expert advice on creating your own homemade home. If you enjoyed the TV series, then the book takes it one step further with her advice on interior décor, plus the shops and websites that have transformed her life. If you didn't see the show, then welcome to her world. It's a book for mothers and daughters, and trust me, sons. If you're looking for a new hobby, there is nothing more manly than blacksmithing or glassblowing, and few projects more satisfying than flower arranging or mini cake decoration. Or if you just want a moment to yourself and something lovely to look at'' Hardcover, lots of beautiful colour photos + crafts/DIY directory, 220 pages, mainly comfort print with some large print pages and some smaller size fonts Looking for a good, useful new home :) Flexible collection times (but Thursday afternoons cannot do before 5.30pm).
