Ferris, by Kate DiCamillo
Quiet loss permeates this typically resplendent Kate DiCamillo novel all about Ferris Winkley, and her quixotic, irrepressible family.
The Very Hungry Caterpillar, by Eric Carle
Though many wouldn't think of this classic as a book about death, the caterpillar's transformation into a butterfly marks an unavoidable life transition with simple grace, in terms very young children can grasp and follow.
