Buschelia, Leo. The Fall of Freddy the Leaf.   New York:  Slack Incorporated, 1982.  ISBN:0-8050-7195-4.  $10.17 hard back  Explaining death to a child  Explaining death to a child is not an easy task. The best book I have found for this is The Fall of Freddy the Leaf,  by Leo Buschelia.  I have found this book to have a very sound Catholic theology and an excellent pedagogy.  I was introduced to it by excellent parents helping their children understand the death of their grandmother. It works.
