The Love In Mending Mary Catherine Rishcoff

The storybook, The Love In Mending addresses love and healing (mending). Both on the surface and at deeper levels, it is apparent that we can heal and help each other whether pet or person.



In the book, a very special Sewing Box gets used to mend torn toys. The pet and owner bond together by means of the Sewing Box. They do well together by "mending" one another. Suitably, the author likens "mending" as sewing. The healing of a sick pet presents further trials in the relationship.



Furthermore, the frequently used words "very special" emphasize the importance of whatever is referenced. References include pet, family, toys, Sewing Box, and relationship.



"Very special" implies the deserving of the best as well as the getting of the best. Like the very special dog, the very special relationship endures. There exists very special love in mending within a very special relationship!
