Balloons For Tiger

Michelle Fern on Pet Life Radio

How can children begin to heal after losing a pet?This week Michelle Fern is joined by Lori Orlinsky, author of Balloons For Tiger.  Balloons for Tiger takes an imaginative look at this tough topic as colorful balloons travel from the hands of children to their beloved cat who has passed on. This book lets children open up their hearts and imaginations for a magical journey to the farthest corners of the world, where they'll meet skydivers, astronauts, superheroes, and everything in between.

As they watch the balloons voyage to the other side of the rainbow bridge, they learn to positively process their grief. A great tool for any child who has experienced the loss of a pet- or any other loved one, too.
