Review
A sincere, caring story told with a straightforward, honest approach. - School Library Journal
Warm color illustrations add the perfect touch to this powerful and memorable story, enhanced with four extra pages of facts about cancer in the back. Highly recommended, especially for public library children's collections. - Midwest Book Review
The text educates readers and also offers hope and inspiration to those who have pets, family or friends dealing with a cancer diagnosis. - Wild About Nature
