Expanded Description:
Twenty-one writers put into words the depth of grief felt after their animals' deaths, the lessons learned from their lives, how these animals changed them, and the joy they left behind. With rare literary texture and insight, they convey how pets fit into the messiness of life, and how life changes because of them.
Death is not always pretty, and the words that comfort aren't always those that speak of rainbow bridges or angel choirs. "Cherished" goes to the gut, earthy and honest, offering no easy answers but an assurance that if loving and losing a pet leaves you feeling simultaneously crazy, bewildered, and weirdly blessed, you are not alone.-- Rev. Gary Kowalski, author of "Goodbye, Friend"
Animals warm and boost our spirits, and fill some of the dark and disconnected cracks in life. It's wonderful to read the reflections of creative people sharing this experience, as these writers have done so beautifully and poignantly in "Cherished."-- Jon Katz, author of "Rose in a Storm" and "The Dogs of Bedlam Farm"

| Essays on owner/pet relationships, July 7, 2011 |
| Reviewer: Linda Mace |
| Written by authors, this book is a delight as each author tells of a special relationship they had with their pet; dogs, horses, cats. They each have a very touching story to tell that will leave you with a wonderful sense of how blest we are to have companionship with our pets regardless of how that may have come about. It's all about the relationships. |
