The Dead Bird by Margaret Wise Brown, with illustrations by Christian Robinson, is a gentle story about a group of children who find a bird lying still in the grass. They decide to say goodbye—digging a small grave in the park, covering it with ferns and flowers, and singing songs to send the bird on its way. Originally published in 1938, this edition features new illustrations by Caldecott Honor winner Christian Robinson. A quiet, honest book for children beginning to grapple with loss.
