What parents are saying "I know many people have special relationships with pets and love them as children, but for us, Lucy the dog was more than just a pet. She was a service animal for our daughter, who is eleven and has seizures. Lucy literally saved our child's life. Unfortunately for all of us, we recently had to say goodbye to Lucy. Some people prefer to wait to get a new pet after one dies, but we had to get a new one right away. We've learned that no dog can ever replace Lucy but we have found a different, though just as strong, bond with our new companion, Ricky. This book has helped all of us talk about what we miss about Lucy and remember her together in a really powerful way. Thank you so much for this book." "Last year, we adopted a kitten that our ten-year-old son found abandoned. Unfortunately, the kitten was sicker than we knew and we had her for only about seven months. My son fell in love with her quickly and was devastated by her loss. He has been struggling with feeling guilty. He's afraid he didn't take good enough care of her. This memory book has been so beneficial to help him walk through this grief and understand that they had a lot of love to share in a very short time." "I am so pleased with how engaged my kid, who's eight, has been with this activity book. We lost a beloved dog who had been with us before my son entered our life. We were having trouble grieving ourselves while helping our son through his sadness. Memories of You has helped us all!"
