THE PSYCHOLOGY OF DEATH ( by Robert Kastenbaum) This basic text includes chapters

3. THE PRIVATE WORLD OF DYING CHILDREN ( by Myra Bluebond-Langner) The author 
studied terminally ill children, spending time with them in hospital wards. She gains their trust and ultimately comes to see the world through these children’s eyes. She moves us to understand that children do not fear entirely for their own lives, but vigilantly stand proud in the face of death, subtly comforting their doctors through their smiles while at the same time watching their parents watch them die. A profound, moving book.
