Oscar and Emmy Lose a Friend (Oscarand Emmy Series) by Terri Sabol – Review by Tia Martel

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

Oscar and Emmy love playing with their friend Shadow through the window every night. Th play hide and seek before Shadow goes to the front door to get some food from the family.

However, Shadow begins coming straight to the door, then eating less and the kids notice that something is wrong. Mom and the kids take Shadow to the vet and they’re told she’s sick and will die.

Oscar and Emmy Lose a Friend is such a sweet and lovely story about their friend getting sick and passing away. I definitely cried but I will be getting a physical copy for my child when he’s older since we have cats that will be old before he’s ready.

I think it explains euthanasia is a very kid friendly and age appropriate way for young kids. It has a sweet tribute to the cat lost and opens up conversation if more discussion is needed. I love Oscar and Emmy so much!
