A small, soft book for the day a small heart asks, "but where did they go?" — and for any grown-up holding the same question.
Written by Lisa Stewart.
Illustrated by Tanya Panova.
— a gentle place to land.
Losing a dog isn't small. This book doesn't pretend it is. Instead it tucks the loss into a soft, sunny place — somewhere kids can return to whenever the question comes back.
Heaven, here, is a sunlit meadow. There are squeaky toys. There are belly rubs. There is story time. Promise.
Short, lyrical pages built for snuggled-up nights and small voices asking the big question.
Hand-painted dogs in the clouds — beagles, dachshunds, scrappy mutts — every page a small piece of art to keep.
There's a forest cloud where we can dig in the mud or chase tiny critters in streams. There are trails full of animal poo and stinky things to roll in. It's quite popular.
— both, somehow, can be true.
32 pages, illustrated throughout by Tanya Panova. Wrapped in tissue and shipped with a small handwritten note — because it usually arrives on a hard day.
