A young girl and her lovable dog, Lulu, are the best of friends. They
play games together, explore their neighborhood, and even cuddle up to
read bedtime stories each night. Lulu is the best dog a girl could ever
hope for, but when she grows older and gradually becomes weak, the
little girl must face the sad possibility of losing her dear friend, and
inevitably, cope with the death of her canine companion. Though she is
deeply saddened by Lulu's passing and misses her very much, over time
the little girl discovers that the sweet memory of her beloved Lulu will
live on forever... in her heart.
With realistic, hopeful illustrations by Ard Hoyt, this tender tale
offers an accessible lens to young children learning to understand and
cope with the mixed emotions that come with the loss of a loved one.
