Existentialism.. Does it?

My son has started asking some very thought provoking questions.. Certainly of a philosophical nature... In my ignorance I'd probably guess in the direction of existentialism.

Now I know that fab is replete with people of knowledge and expertise. Any of you thoughtful fabbers have any recommendations for a book such as a beginners guide to existentialism?

The classic, and still helpful, intro is Sartre's Existentialism and Humanism. I think there's a Very Short Guide, too.

It depends on the stage of development of your son.
