Name: The Day Tiger Rose Said Goodbye by Jane Yolen Company: RANDOM HOUSE INC. Age: 4-8 Price: $16.99 Category: Books
WHAT IT IS This hardcover book follows Tiger Rose, an elderly cat, on her last day.
WHAT WE THOUGHT Anyone who has lost a pet will be moved by this heartbreaking, yet heartwarming, tale. Tiger Rose spends her last day saying goodbye to her family, enjoying the beautiful outdoors, and finally closing her eyes for the last time. The story is very simple but rings true. The last pages of the book, with Tiger Rose looking down from the sky, and the family dog standing outside the house no doubt wondering where his friend went, brought tears to my eyes. But where this book truly shines is in its ability to make a book about loss a celebration of all that makes life worth living.
WHY THEY´LL WANT IT Not your average bedtime story, this book would be ideal for customers with children who are experiencing grief, either at the loss of a pet or someone special to them. It´s simple yet honest way of describing death could be helpful as a child struggles to deal with the loss.
