Book Nook: Finding Joy

Finding Joy - when they adopt an old dog from the local animal shelter, a girl and her brother are excited to have a special friend to play with. They embark on all kinds of adventures with Joy until one day when she lays down for a nap and does not wake up. At first, the family is very sad, but they learn it’s important to remember both the happy and sad times. As their hearts begin to heal, a new season begins, and they welcome another furry friend in need of a loving home—MEOW!

Learning to navigate big emotions like grief and loss is part of growing up. Finding Joy includes a resource guide on "How to Talk to Children About Loss" for any child who is processing their feelings and grief after the loss of a loved one.
