Paw Prints An Offering on Loss eBook Morgan J Muir Sava Andreea Reviews
- Paw Prints from Morgan J Muir is a brief illustrated tribute to a dog gone far too soon.
This is short and might seem like it is too short, but I get the feeling that Muir isn't going for a long drawn-out crying session but rather the thoughts that one has the first time one goes through the motions of a ritual right after the dog that had shared that ritual has passed. I have lost dogs and while I often have the long sessions where I remember everything good and, usually, everything I should have done better. But I have also had moments like these, walking numbly through the next day or two and remembering that just yesterday, or the day before, this was a shared and joyful experience. During that time I make an inventory of what to remember, much like what this book is doing. I am laying the foundation for my future memories, making sure that I see the places and objects abandoned while the memory is still fresh of them not being so.
I would highly recommend this to anyone who has ever lost a beloved pet, especially a young one or suddenly. None of the usual platitudes seem appropriate at that time, even if we later can talk in terms of paw prints on our hearts.
Reviewed from a copy made available by the publisher via NetGalley. - Paw Prints by Morgan J Muir is a book I requested from NetGalley and the review is voluntary. This was a nice book about a dog and at the end you find the dog had past. The art was fine and I think I just expected more from the writing. It was still very nice.
- Cute story with beautiful illustrations. The dog tail wagging was an interesting take since dogs never sit still ;)
- Beautifully written story about the loss of a furry friend. Anyone who has lost a beloved pet will connect with this moving illustrated story.
- Cute pictures in this book! What a great way for a child to communicate their feelings about any loss they might experience.
