What a wonderful family story. Congratulations! Will there be a way to purchase a signed edition? Maybe not from all three generations, but at least signed by you?
What a lovely heartfelt story and message. So incredibly special that you all worked on this as a family - Congratulations!! May it bring much joy and a gentle understanding of the beauty of the bittersweet to many. 💜
Congratulations to you and your family on the launch of your new book! What a beautiful way to teach children of all ages (those young and young at heart) about impermanence and a lovely keepsake for your family 💛
Having a donkey in the countryside is so common. However, when I was a kid, I would shepherd sheep but I had only a dog not a donkey. My perspective to donkeys, they are like pet and so helpful and so wonderful.
Congratulations! It looks like a beautiful book.
Congratulations! An important lesson in life as well...

I’m looking into signed bookplates now. We will let the community know if they are available.

I love the title, especially because the name Norman was my Dad’s name. ☺️
This is so sweet, or bittersweet!
