Do you know of any good christian books that explain death to children?
November 222010
I have two little boys. 4yo and 3yo. Their Grandad passed away on Wednesday my 3yo doesn’t really understand but my 4yo is having trouble understanding heaven and death etc, just wondering if any body knows of a good Christian book for this age group explaining everything?
Nana Upstairs & Nana Downstairs by Tommie dePaola
The book itself is a way to introduce children to death. The boy in the story is 4 years old as well. The only thing is it deals with the death of a great grandmother but, the principle is there.
All of his stories are great for kids and, usually have some sort of life lesson.

If you immerse yourselves in these things, you will gain a much broader and deeper understanding of the Word, and come to appreciate just HOW MUCH these books are referred in the Bible. The Book of Enoch (also 1 Enoch) is ascribed to Enoch, the great-grandfather of Noah and son of Jared. While this book today is non-canonical in most Christian churches, it was explicitly quoted in the New Testament (Letter of Jude 1:14-15) and by many of the early Church Fathers. The Ethiopian Orthodox Church to this day regards it to be canonical. It is wholly extant only in the Ge’ez language, with Aramaic fragments from the Dead Sea Scrolls and a few Greek and Latin fragments. It is argued that ALL the writers of the New Testament were familiar with it and were influenced by it in thought and diction.
