Sheehy, Gail.
Passages

Describing life as a series of passages from one station to the next, Ms. Sheehy makes it clear that everyone goes through changes in life.
Silverstein, Shel.
The Giving Tree

This is a beautiful story written on a child’s level but with a message that is ageless. If you’ve never read it, you owe it to yourself.

The Missing Piece
. New York: Harper and Row, 1976.
A beautiful story of a non descript thing that is missing a piece and so feels unhappy. Once again Silverstein wraps a timeless lesson in a child’s story.
