In very straightforward language, it explains death, how it is inevitable, and why its existence underlies the preciousness of life: ""Be grateful for your life. Every day. Every second. Cherish every moment while your life is still yours."" The narrator is death itself, portrayed as a monstrous beast, speaking to the reader, ""Little One."" While the artwork of the book is designed to be just scary enough for a child to handle, it also evokes the beauty of life in a way that a child can understand. It is refreshingly free of evasion, deceit, or existentialist blarney. Many adults would benefit from reading it, since, as the author says in a postscript: ""..we are all Little Ones, after all.""
