I can think of a few. Zink by Cherie Bennet's SPOILERmain character diesSPOILER, Bridge to Terabithia, Harry Potter, pretty much any book dealing with the Holocaust, I think there was a book about the Oregon trail that had a kid's newborn sibling die? I might be remember that wrong, it's been a while.
I haven't read a lot of Dahl, but children dying wouldn't have been my first association with his books/writing. (I have only read like one or two Dahl books, though)
