'Sammy in the Sky' aims to help kids cope with loss of a pet

If you were young when a family pet died - or you lost a family pet when your children were young - then you know the pain and confusion kids can go through with the loss of a pet.

Journalist Barbara Walsh tackles that topic in a new book, "Sammy in the Sky." The book includes illustrations by Jamie Wyeth.

David Sharp of The Associated Press wrote about "Sammy in the Sky" in a feature story this weekend. Walsh tells him that agents and publishers were hesitant to publish the book, which is now in its third printing. Head over to News-Herald.com/Life to read more about the book and the journey to getting it published.
