"Our hearts connect with our pets no matter where they are, on this Earth or somewhere beyond... A valuable story for anyone who treasures the companionship of a family pet and the path of grieving and healing"
'Joan Derrick's spiritual story celebrates the love, warmth, and joy that animals give us in this life and beyond. Explaining the connection that we too will return home to Spirit someday. Whilst Laila Savolainen's emotive and uplifting illustrations, warm and gentle in colour and mood, suit the simple message perfectly. Josie's Heaven Awaits tells the story of five-year-old Riley and his grandmother, after finding Josie the elderly dog had died in her sleep. Grandmother and Riley visit the dog in her Spirit Home, which some people call Heaven. It shows a beautiful happy place where Josie's joy is obvious as she plays with angels and is surrounded by all the friends she has known. Heaven truly is a wonderful place.' (Publication summary)
