She is also the author of The Nature of Grief: Photographs and Words for Reflection and Healing, the Grief Support Mailings, the Grief Support Group Manual, and numerous articles related to grief and loss.Apart from the story of Shiner's death, the book contains several pages for young readers to share about their pet, and suggestions for adults in helping children following the loss of a pet. When Shiner Died will make a wonderful resource for a child, or an adult, who recently lost their pet.
