Oscar and Emmy Lose a Friend (Oscarand Emmy Series) by Terri Sabol – Review by Kerry Baker
Oscar and Emmy Lose a Friend: A story about pet loss and saying goodbye to a furry friend. Ages 5-11 and kindergarten through grade 5. by Terri Sabol
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
This books is heart breaking and yet amazing all at the same time. This book covers a topic that is difficult to discuss with children – loss and the loss of a pet. The author handles it beautifully and it is an emotional and well written story. Thankfully, this isn’t a topic I have had to touch on with my kids but it thought it was a great way to gently introduce them to the subject. And, in the future if it becomes any more relevant, I will certainly revisit this book with them as a way to explain what is happening.
This whole series has been engaging and fun to read and, despite the subject matter, this one has to be my favourite so far. I can’t wait to see what is next.
