I have been a fan and supporter of Sylvia Browne for years and have picked up almost every book of hers. I recently lost my beloved cat suddenly and within a week, I headed to the bookstore to pick up this book. I knew from some of her writings in other books what our beloved furbabies go home to, but I really wanted the additional comfort of a book devoted just to that subject.
I knew, before purchasing the book, that it was designed as more of a picture book, although it is hardly just for children. The pictures are beautiful and although I finished the text and book itself in probably ten minutes, I found myself crying tears of relief and even joy at reading of the happiness, security and health that my precious furbaby now had.
Anyone who has lost a beloved pet should read these inspiring words - - and feel the immense relief of knowing that yes, we will see our sweet babies again and they will be restored to full health and gloriously happy. And while this book is absolutely wonderful for children, adults will benefit as well. A definite keeper in my library.
Five stars, all the way.

My son, 5 years old, was having a terrible time letting our dog go who had past over a year and a half ago. We had several discussions about faith and even being completely blunt. Nothing seemed to work until this book. After a read it to him, it was as if a light switch was turned on. He is no longer sad and confused about the lost of his best friend.

I purchased this book because I was anxious to read about where our beloved animals go when they cross over. I knew that they went to heaven as well, but wasn't sure about all the details. This book provided some great information. In the past a couple of our pets had passed away and my family and I were curious as to exactly how they spend their time on the Other Side and so forth. I would certainly recommend it to someone who's lost a pet or is simply curious. I would love to see Sylvia and Chris dedicate a whole book about the animal kingdom in general. Perhaps they've put some of that information in other books that I haven't yet read. This book is a MUST HAVE for any parent where pets are part of the family.

My Onyx passed suddenly on 02/08/06. I had so many questions as to why, where is he now, is he happy, does he miss me. I find a lot of comfort reading this. I have no children no kid to read this too. I needed a quick fix not some novel quoting the bible with a thousand pages. I'm not a religious person however I do believe there is something greater beyond what we know. I knew this was a childrens book when I bought it obviously I didn't care. The state I am in now I need comfort and reassurance fast. It's helping me now and reassures me that one day I will be with him and other loved beings I call family.

I was really looking forward to reading this book, especially being from Sylvia Browne. I was very disappointed. It only took about three minutes to go through this book. It was nothing like what I expected. Sylvia tells the audience that anyone with pets need to get this book, she should tell them it is more for children. Pictures were nice, didn't tell me anything I didn't already know. I feel I just threw my money away by buying this book. I should have read the ratings before buying it, I felt since Sylvia wrote it that it had to be worth buying. My cat was very ill and I was looking for something that would help me through her passing. Unfortunately this book wasn't it.

When I first heard about the book, I couldn't wait to buy it. I went to my local big book store and found it in the childrens' section. I sat down and read it cover to cover in the store. My beloved BIG dog of 13 1/2 years was failing and I knew the end was nearing. I didn't buy the book that day.... When Buddy passed a few months later, I HAD to buy the book. It has been very helpful in processing my grieving. I know that Buddy will be there to greet me when it's my time to "cross over". Thank you Sylvia and Chris.

I recently purchased this book because of a loss of a beloved pet. It helped me deal with my grief and gave me a better understanding of what happens when a pet passes on to the other side. I would recommend this book to anyone that has suffered the loss of their pet. It's also very helpful for children too, because it gave my daughter a peaceful feeling.

A very soothing book for anyone who wonders if their pet is in Heaven. Yes, and waiting for you! One of Sylvia's best.

I found this book to be VERY helpful. My six year old felt so much better about the loss of her very best friend, Barney. The illustrations were great. It was nice to see "pets" exploring the palaces of Asia alongside tigers and elephants. It is really a very nice, reassuring book. I would HIGHLY recommend it to anyone that has suffered the loss of a beloved pet. It's extremly comforting, and I am very thankful to Sylvia and Chris for doing this book. I would give it ten stars if I could.

I have several of Sylvia's books, and find them fasinating. I truly believe that she is the real deal when it comes to her work as a Psychic. I give this book as my Sympathy Card, to friends who have lost a loved pet. It offers them much comfort, and becomes a keepsake. Sylvia, if You read this, thank You from the depths of my Spirit, and please make a book like this one, for humans who have passed as well.
