The little boy remembers how sad he felt on the day Jake died, then later, how he learned to cope with his loss and recall all the good times that he and Jake had together. The story acknowledges that the death of a pet is often a child's first experience with grief and encourages children to explore their feelings of loss and sadness.

About this title

From the Back Cover

[back cover]
The human cycle of life is completed at death. The cycle of life is the same for our pets.

I REMEMBER acknowledges the love and joys of having a pet, then recognizes the impact that a pet’s loss has on a family, particularly on children.

The death of a pet is often a child’s first experience with grief. When children are overwhelmed with grief, they experience many feelings they might not understand.

I REMEMBER encourages grieving children to take the first step towards healing by giving them an opportunity to explore their feelings of loss and sadness.
