A beautiful book telling the story of a precious friendship. A brilliant exploration of the feelings of grief and loss encountered when a loved one dies. Excellent for young children!

I was first given this book when I Was 7; I'm now 24 and it still has as much resonance as ever. Beautifully written and illustrated, it is the story of a young boy growing up with his dog and how gradually he comes to realise his best friend will not be there forever.
It always makes me cry because it is so true to life and I really recommend this book to anyone, young or old, who has an animal or has loved and lost. A heartwarming (yet wrenching!) tale of friendship.

I bought this book for my 6years old daughter. It might not be a happy story, but it is a lovely story and you can learn a lot from this book. After I read it to my daughter, I also had to think a lot. There are a lot of things you might not say everyday and assume people know although you don't say, but is it really true?

Lovely, lovely
A lovely way to handle the very sensitive side of bereavement. Suggest you read it first by yourself, so it doesn't catch you out!
