They might know that they could die from this illness, but do they really understand what dying is? Do they wonder what happens to them if they actually die?

Hey Mama
This story is about a boy who takes a walk with his mother. He sees different animals along the path and uses his imagination to see what he would look like if he was made just like that particular animal. Mama always replies with "because God made you just the way you are," and in the end, when the boy is able to see his own reflection, he is happy with who he is and how he is wonderfully made by God.
