Śmierć jest trudnym problemem, który nie oszczędza nikogo, także młodych ludzi, którzy od zawsze mieli prawo do żegnania się z umierającymi, wspominania ich oraz oswajania się ze śmiercią, na przykład poprzez czytanie baśni. Nie można jednak zapominać, że dzieci kojarzą się z początkiem życia, a śmierć jest jego końcem, więc umieranie przestało być tematem tabu w literaturze, gdzie coraz częściej stawia się śmierć jako główny wątek dzieł przeznaczonych dla dzieci i młodzieży. W swojej monografii udowadniam, że współczesna literatura dziecięca i młodzieżowa ukazuje śmierć jako zjawisko, którego nie należy się obawiać, co więcej, pokazuję, że w tego typu dziełach widoczne jest przyzwolenie na śmierć, gdyż umieranie to naturalna kolej rzeczy. Nie będę korzystać z innych źródeł, na przykład z Internetu, do którego dzieci mają w dzisiejszych czasach nieograniczony dostęp, aby udowodnić, że w książkach można znaleźć odpowiedź na wiele nurtujących i trudnych dla młodego czytelnika pytań.
