About the Book

How would you feel if you just lost a big part of your life, amp quot someone amp quot very special to you?

Meet Aleta. She has two best friends, Cassie and Nina, and she wants to be a vet. Aleta knows that animals don't live forever, but when her dog Kate dies, she can't believe it. It just feels so unfair! And she doesn't want to talk about it. She wants to be alone, and she's really sad and a little angry, too.

With the help of her family and friends, Aleta learns to deal with her feelings and comes to be able to remember Kate with happiness.

From the Tip Sheet for coping with the death of a beloved pet:

The death of a pet is sad and difficult. Feeling lots of strong emotions now is normal. But you don amp rsquo t have to go through it alone. Remember that you can and will get through this with the help of your family and friends.

Review :
amp quot The book, by design, shows others how to open themselves to the loving support of their family and is a model for all types of losses, whether a pet or even a family member. amp quot -Pacific Book Review

amp quot Kate, the Ghost Dog is filled with love, vivid color, and feeling. Kate, the Ghost Dog also blends a message of multi-racial acceptance in with the work of learning to grieve a death. Highly recommended for both school and community library collections. amp quot -The Midwest Book Review

amp quot Kate, the Ghost Dog is a positive book that respectfully discusses the grief process for children, and is a beneficial tool for both parents and schools alike. amp quot -The Feathered Quill
