This is just my advice as a no-one on the internet:

You and your father both seem really mature about this, which I respect a lot. It seems like a good time for the three of you to sit down and talk about it with your son. He’ll probably have a lot of questions and get emotional, but just give him patience and help him understand things. I don’t really see much of a reason to buy a book to do this, but I don’t have much experience with small children either

I appreciate the comment, which I take as a great compliment.

My concern is that boy’s night is fun time. This is serious time. My wife and I were discussing, she asked what I would do if the child didn’t react or said something like “Papa, when are you losing your hair yet?”

That doesn’t seem bad to me. I just don’t want to scare him or get him crying.

As per the book, my son loves book time with Mom and Dad. It’s just seems like a very effective way to communicate to him. Especially since it’s about someone else.
