The aims of this paper are: 1) to describe the developmental concept of death and the ways of coping in children and adolescents in case of loss 2) to make a literature review of the main recommendations and guidelines to address the communication process and preparation children in this situation. Method: A systematic literature search has been made in primary and secondary databases (TripDatbase, PsycInfo, PubMed, Cochrane Library, Psicodoc), by combining different keywords.
