no edit summary
This is a moving story, which gently shows what it is like to grieve, and that no two people go through this process in the same way or at the same pace. It makes clear the fact that other people can do very little to help except be there for the person in pain, ready to offer support and a listening ear. It is the kind of book which would provoke plenty of discussion and thought (the website provides several suggestions for teachers) and would be a valuable addition to any school library.
Another story about dogs, for slightly older readers perhaps, is [[Doglands by Tim Willocks]], about a dog who has to choose between safety and freedom. And a further story about a family in crisis which is helped by an animal is [[Flyaway by Lucy Christopher]]. You'll definitely need tissues for this one, too. We also loved [[Hero by Sarah Lean]].
