Well that was sad. A secular picture book about the fact that people come into and leave the world by chance. It's a fact of life. Take it a step further and I think you're at stoicism.

This subtle picture book about the circle of life would be a great conversation starter about life and death.

This matter-of-fact book introduces birth and death and that we do not know where we go when we die. "Those of us here are just here. And so we'd best enjoy ourselves." Fine for sharing with young ones who express curiosity but aren't grieving. Whimsical but old-fashioned looking, sharp-angled, and oddly colored illustrations seem a mismatch for the topic. The text is jaunty and informative but the overall package left me cold.

Interesting book on loss for children. I loved the illustrations, but not sure how/where I would use this particular picture book.

This is beautiful

a pretty, if vague, little book about the cycle of life, specifically its beginning and end.

A philosophical picture book about life and death.

A really gentle book tackling the topic of death.
