Water Bugs and Dragonflies: Explaining Death to Young Children

How can we answer the many questions young children have about death? Looking for a meaningful way to explain the death of a five-year-old friend to neighborhood children, Stickney adapted a graceful fable about a water bug that changed into a dragonfly. First published as a book in 1982, it has become The Pilgrim Press's bestselling book, Water Bugs and Dragonflies. This full-color edition features delightful illustrations by artist Robyn Henderson Nordstrom of Cleveland, Ohio.
