(3) 4-6 Siblings Fiona and Finn grieve the sudden death of their beloved psychiatrist father with the help of Duke, the preternaturally wise boy next door; their father's former patient, Thomas; and--best of all--their daily interactions with dogs from the nearby animal shelter. With sensitivity and understanding, MacLachlan depicts the varying forms and routes that grieving can take for different people.
