Critics Review
“This tender, earnest look at the beautiful connection between pet and child is deeply authentic, showcasing the intense emotions, effectively expressed by Betawi’s quirky artwork, which has an intimate, childlike feel that pairs well with the journal format. Ferguson’s earnest epistolary text, by turns bubbly and raw with sorrow, captures the youngster’s deep emotions with empathy and understanding. A loving look at being thankful for the time we have with others—however fleeting.” —Kirkus
