About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is processing the lingering grief of losing a pet, particularly if they seem to have lost interest in their favorite hobbies or creative outlets. It is a gentle companion for children who are stuck in the 'sad dreams' phase of loss and aren't yet ready to move on to a new animal. The story follows Vincent, a young boy whose passion for painting has vanished since his cat, Snow, passed away a year ago. Through a series of events involving a neighbor's cat and a brief moment of crisis, Vincent learns how to honor his memories while opening his heart to new experiences. It is a secular, realistic, and deeply comforting story for children aged 6 to 9 that validates the long timeline of grief while offering a hopeful path forward through art.
