The Land of Neverendings by Kate Saunders (who won a Costa award for one of her previous books, Five Children on the Western Front) is a fantasy novel for tweens (ages 9-12). It's a classic toys-come-to-life story, but dealing with the issues of grief and loss: "Emily had grown up saying 'My sister is disabled' and now she had to get used to saying, 'My sister is dead.'"
