Desser, the Best Ever Cat by Maggie Smith
Desser the Best Ever Cat is a story about the relationship that a young girl has with her cat as she grows.
It is written from a child’s perspective and illustrates the care and respect that evolves in a good human-animal relationship.
The story deals with the death of Desser in a very gentle, realistic way that portrays the grief one feels as well as the acceptance and ability to move on to give another animal a loving home.
This is best suited for kids aged 4-8.
BC SPCA has many other book recommendations as well.
