When Peque, my dog, died, everyone at home was sad. The next day, a dark cloud began to follow me around and it felt like I had soap in my eyes and an octopus wrapped tightly around my heart...
Written by the renowned child author and psychologist, Alicia Acosta, this uplifting, beautifully illustrated story explores themes of loss and grief and the power of memories.
Cuando mi perro Peque murió, todos en casa nos pusimos tristes. Al día siguiente, una nube comenzó a seguirme a todos lados, me entró jabón en los ojos y un pulpo me agarró muy fuerte del corazón.
