Diesel's Forever Home

About this book

Diesel was a real dog. A gentle, loyal Sheltie who filled his family's days with comfort and unconditional love. When Diesel passed away, his family wanted to give children everywhere a gentle way to understand loss, and a comforting picture of where he went.Diesel's Forever Home follows Hannah and Daniel as they love, lose, and learn to remember their beloved dog. Written from a Christian perspective, this is a story about grief, faith, and the hope of Heaven - a book parents can read alongside a child who is facing the loss of a pet for the first time, or preparing for one.With warm, painterly illustrations and a tone that never rushes past the sadness or the comfort, this book is meant to sit with a family in a hard moment, not just entertain. It's suitable for ages 5-9, and it makes a thoughtful gift for a grieving child, a grandchild who just lost a family pet, or a Sunday school or children's ministry library.A portion of proceeds from this book supports families facing emergency veterinary expenses, so Diesel's story keeps helping pets and the families who love them, long after the last page.
