Harry goes to Heaven

When Jack and Harry find each other in a park one sunny afternoon, neither of them realized their lives will be changed forever by friendship and love.  Inseparable best friends Jack and Harry spend happy, adventure filled days together;  but as Jack gets bigger and stronger, Harry gets older and slower.  One day it is discovered that Harry has cancer and Jack has to say goodbye to his best friend.  This is a story of love, friendship and loss and how Jack finds the faith and understanding that Harry is in a better place and it is always watching over him.

“I can thoroughly recommend ‘Harry goes to Heaven’ for any child who had lost a pet.  The story is accessible, beautifully illustrated and believable.  The death of a pet is a part of many children’s experience, and if properly managed, can assist them in coming to terms with the finality of death and prepare them for the inevitability of losing a parent, a sibling, or other loved ones later in life.  This book is a helpful resource for parents to help their child navigate and process the loss of a pet.”
