Okay, what i liked: A very comforting book when someone looses their best furry friend. I highly recommend anyone that has lost a pet and is overwhelmed or even slightly sad about that loss then this book is for you. This is the book you give to a friend that has lost his/her four legged fur baby. Your friend will love u so much more for the thoughtful gift but even more when she/he begins to read it and learns that her long lost fido isnt so far from her/him after all. This book gives the gift of awareness when a person is blinded by the grief from the loss of their pet. Its a 4.75 star rating book. Now, onto what i didnt like, thats why its not getting five stars is because of the mouse. I have a nasty freakish fear of rodents and the authors relationship with the mouse just grossed me out. No other reason than that. Otherwise Id have to say this book should be on the best sellers list for anyone that has lost a animal family member, ( unless, of course, its a mouse. lol). Excellent read!~The author keeps her story moving and the relationship with the mouse is gross to me but very adorable and the experiences she shares will have you scratching your head thinking and saying to yourself..... " I KNEW IT! Im not going crazy! I was certain that I heard the bell on my dogs collar that she use to wear jingling in the house the other day, but I shook my head in disbelief because how could that be? I burried her a week ago." You will walk away from this book with a greater understanding of our pets death, our loss and that they never really leave our side. Now whether you believe that now or not makes no difference. Just because you cant see something doesnt mean its not there. I mean, Whats the internet? or radio? Cant see it, cant taste it, cant touch it, cant smell it, but its there. Youll walk away from reading this knowing your fur baby is still right with you even though you cant see him/her. A comforting, Hope inspiring, pain relieving read and it also gives you direction and tips on what not to do and experience during your grief process. Excellent Read and an even better gift to give.
