A comforting and playful exploration of a beloved dog's journey after a happy life on Earth.

In Newbery Medalist Cynthia Rylant's classic bestseller, the author comforts readers young and old who have lost a dog, as she did for cats in the bestselling companion book, CAT HEAVEN. Recommended highly by pet lovers around the world, DOG HEAVEN not only comforts but also brings a tear to anyone who is devoted to a pet. From expansive fields where dogs can run and run to delicious biscuits no dog can resist, Rylant paints a warm and affectionate picture of the ideal place God would, of course, create for man's best friend. The first picture book illustrated by the author, Dog Heaven is enhanced by Rylant's bright, bold paintings that perfectly capture an afterlife sure to bring solace to anyone who is grieving.

Industry Reviews

"Pure, tender, lyrical without being overearnest, and deeply felt." - Kirkus - pointer review "The reassuring story might comfort a child after the loss of a pet, but this pleasent, imaginary paradise will have a broader appeal to all animal lovers." - SLJ "The bright acrylic paintings are Rylant's debut as a picture-book painter... they mesh beautifully with the innocence of the text a book for parent-child sharing." - Booklist
