Book Description:
A new edition of the classic fable-which has sold more than 300,000 copies-for anyone who has suffered a permanent loss

Originally published in the fall of 1982, the wonderfully wise and strikingly simple story of a leaf named Freddie has become one of the most popular books of our times. How Freddie and his companion leaves change with the passing seasons, finally falling to the ground with a winter's snow, is an inspiring allegory illustrating the delicate balance between life and death.

After offering solace for a generation of adults and children alike, The Fall of Freddie the Leaf arrives in a classic edition with a beautiful new package that will appeal to today's readers at a time when stories of comfort and inspiration have become more important than ever.

This book is horrible. It's supposed to help children who have lost a loved one, but I would never read it to my kid. It's like the communist manifesto sugar coated for kids. It says the reason for being is to make things more pleasant for others. "We first do our job"..."Then we die".
