The Fall of Freddie the Leaf

If you have ever lost someone, had to explain loss to someone, or had to confront your own mortality this book is pure gold. I love, love, love anything written by Leo Buscaglia and this book is no exception. Using a really simple story of the life of a leaf, Buscaglia explains the birth, life, death, and rebirth circle of life in a way that touches the heart, heals the soul, and eases the mind of the tension that confronting any loss can create.
