Uplifting and Hopeful,
By Lou Olinger (Garland, TX USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: When Your Pet Dies (Paperback)
I have read several books and articles on experiencing grief from the loss of a beloved animal. No book has brought as much hope and a feeling of calmness to me as Ms. Pomerance's "When Your Pet Dies". Written primarily for children, it is as helpful and reassuring to adults as it will be to children. Parents should feel comfortable in allowing their children to read this book. Parents should read it as well. It traces a very realistic picture, both figuratively, as well factually, of the process that humans go through during the life of their beloved pet. The pictures in the book, done by a 13 year old girl, are both colorful and beautiful. They add a great deal to this journey through life into death. I have reread it many times, enjoying it more each time. I highly recommend this book to anyone going through the grief related to pet loss. Lou Olinger, MS

Grieving for pets is OK,
By Jean Nadel (Dallas, Texas) - See all my reviews
This review is from: When Your Pet Dies (Paperback)
"When Your Pet Dies" may have been written for children, but this beautifully written book should help people of all ages who have lost a beloved animal companion.Accompanied by lovely illustrations(obviously the work of a youngster!) that help to clarify the text, it contains important information about the grieving process and makes it clear that grief is OK and normal. It should help children to identify their feelings and begin the process of recovery. As a special education teacher and educator, I highly recommend this eloquently written book for children(and their parents)who have had the devastating experience of losing a beloved pet.

Help for one of a life's hardest times,
By Betty Christenson (Sachse, TX United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: When Your Pet Dies (Paperback)
Not only does this beautifully written book help children who have suffered a major loss, it can also help adults. In much of today's society losing a pet is not considered a major loss. But to many people, it's a catastropic event with no one to share it with who understands. It's apparent the author does not only understand but has learned the way through this extremely difficult time.This is a wonderful tool to help get through your grief of a beloved companion's death, no matter what your age.
