Why read it?
1 author picked The Fall of Freddie the Leaf as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I first read this book as a 21-year-old woman who had just lost her father. Other than losing pets, this was my first experience with loss. The book Freddie the Leaf seemed like a children’s book, but its themes and messages were so relatable, even though I was a senior in college. I remember the simple way that the concepts of passing seasons and life and death were portrayed in such a comforting manner, and I was so grateful that someone gifted me with this book during the most difficult time in my life.
From Amy's list on children and adults coping with the loss of a pet.
