Angus Is Here

A young child navigates grief after losing a beloved family pet and learns what it means for a loved one's presence to remain even after they are gone.

Angus Is Here captures the essence of loss and memory. Angus may be gone, but memories of him are still here: his tail wagging under the dinner table, his nails clicking on the floor, and his hopeful sniff when snacks are being prepared.

Angus's presence is felt everywhere, until one day . . . it's not. In this poignant and beautiful picture book, a child journeys through grief and learns how to keep memories of a beloved dog close.
