Max and Me

7 year old author Ethan has written this short story about his pet dog, Max, following Max's death. As such it is his way of expressing his fondness and grief for his departed dog. This was all his own idea and work in the weeks following Max's death. He is also a budding artist and undertook to also illustrate his story as well. The book is a wonderful example of how a child, given encouragement and space, can use creative arts and writing to express their feelings.
