“He has changed people’s lives, banished the fear of death, and brought grieving parents the solace of their dead children’s presence. . . .It is impossible not to be moved.” — Newsweek


Dear Friend,

I communicate with the dead. It is what I do, and I am BLESSED to have this ability. Given the nature of the communication, I am in contact with those who have passed over and gone to heaven on a regular basis.

That is, I talk to the dead quite frequently. For this reason, some may think my job is depressing or bleak, but that is far from true. As strange as it may sound, death is part of LIFE. That is, death is but a stage in a soul’s spiritual journey.

My ability, the job I have chosen on this earthly plane, comes with a great responsibility. It is very important that I help SHARE my knowledge and experience so that those who have lost loved ones can find solace and peace during their souls’ journeys.

All of us are on a path together. This book is written to help ease the suffering and to shine a light on a world that too few of us know or understand.

Loss of any kind is devastating, but the loss of a child is TRULY devastating. It may be the ultimate loss we as humans can ever experience on this earth.

If you have endured the loss of a baby, child, family member, or friend, this book is my gift to you. The readings and letters contained within may help you understand that you are never alone in your grief, that your child or loved one is always around to ease your pain.

I hope to provide ANSWERS to the questions you hold deep in your heart about where the spirits of children go when they leave the earth and how they grow up there.

I hope to give you a soul’s view of the purpose for life on earth.

In the process, we will go deep into the idea of reincarnation, meet the helpful guides of the other world, and ultimately answer your questions about HEAVEN.

Come along with me on this journey, and together we’ll explore Growing Up in Heaven.

Sincerely,




Blessed with an exceptional gift, James Van Praagh has the ability to bridge the gap between this world and the next. Based on nearly 30 years of spirit communication, this internationally renowned and beloved medium takes you on a journey to meet the departed spirits that have come to him to communicate with their loved ones.

Filled with uplifting true stories and profound messages of love, this astounding look at HEAVEN provides a remarkably detailed portrayal of the child’s soul as it moves from this world to the next.

Your eyes and heart will open as you experience firsthand the unbreakable bond between parent and child, all the while glimpsing a vision of heaven.

James writes,
“A soul never stops growing and evolving no matter what form of life it takes. Sometimes a soul needs to touch the earth only briefly in order to fulfill its lessons. When children pass into the world of Spirit, their souls go directly to a realm of magnificent light made of glorious buildings, parks, waterways, and picturesque environments. It is also a place of intense soul-work, learning, and play. When children wake up in their heavenly home, they feel an innate stirring of familiarity because, like all souls, they have died and been reborn many times.”

You probably have lots of questions about life after death, heaven, and your purpose here on earth.

Here are just some of my answers:

SO WHAT IS HEAVEN, EXACTLY?

As the soul passes through the spirit world, it realizes that is has entered a sphere of creative energy, universal thought, compassion, joy, and quiet contemplation. It is a very productive place that is designed to help the soul study, gain knowledge, and mature.

Here, souls reunite with their spirit families and soul groups to work on their soul lessons and plan their next earthly missions. In this inter-life, or between lives in the earthly realm, souls can progress to higher forms of consciousness.

Souls even go to schools where they can specialize in various interests that will assist in future incarnations!

When you die, your soul meets with two distinct kinds of beings. The first is a community of guides, and the second is a council of elders or master teachers.

Both groups assist the soul with understanding the previous life’s lessons, and with planning the soul’s next life.

HEAVEN is the place of beauty and support the soul goes to review the life just lived, heal from any sorrows or traumas, and prepare for the next life of lessons and love.

WHAT ABOUT REINCARNATION, JAMES?

Many people ask how soon a soul reincarnates after it dies. Ten years? Two hundred years? The answer is that it’s up to each individual soul.

The soul makes the decision to return to earth based on optimum factors and elements:

  • The right body
  • The right geographical location
  • The right culture
  • The right family
  • The chosen teachings
  • And much more!

Remember that time is relative on the spiritual plane. Some souls evolve rapidly. These souls return more quickly than others. But you can wait as long as you like to return. You always have free will.

It’s very important to understand that reincarnation is not a punishment for mistakes made in a past life. It’s the opportunity to go ever higher in consciousness, learning what you need most for your soul’s growth.

When all the elements of a new life are set in place and a soul becomes aware of the opportunity, it’s ready to INCARNATE.

Maybe even as a child of your own!

“[Van Praagh] helps a lot of people. He really is a healer. I think he’s basically on this earth right now at this time and place to heal. He is the real thing. I can’t tell you how many times he’s been right with me.”  

— Shirley MacLaine


You’re probably wondering:

CAN ANYONE HEAR THE DEAD THE WAY YOU DO, JAMES?

Through years of interacting with the other side, I have found that spirits are constantly attempting to contact the living. The most obvious way is through THOUGHT.

Almost always, the moment your loved one comes to mind is the moment when he or she is nearby. Usually a spirit will PROJECT a thought into your mind.

You may think, “I wonder how my daughter is?” In reality, you are picking up on the transmission of her thought.

Often I say to my audiences, “How many of you have had thoughts about your spirit family fill your head when you are driving your car or making dinner?” Every person in the audience will raise a hand. Almost everyone has experienced this.

Spirits will try every way possible to let you know that they are still VERY much a part of your life.

HOW CAN I HEAL MY LIFE AFTER SUCH A LOSS?

No one travels the journey alone.

If you, like many of the parents who have written to me, can recognize that your child has given you a spiritual opportunity, you will survive and even THRIVE on your journey.

You will be transformed in your human experience on these earthly shores. There may be times of deep sorrow and pain, but your child is always close by to strengthen you with COURAGE. After all...

The bonds of love last through eternity.
