It was never home for the dog Emily craved. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEmily shared the lively chaos with her beloved older sister Rachael, her rock. Over the years the sisters bond grew ever closer. As Rachael went on to have the cosy family and treasured dog, Giggle, Emily threw herself into unsettled adventure - dog ownership remaining a distant dream.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThen, tragically, Rachael is diagnosed with cancer. In just three devastating years Emily loses not only her sister but both her parents as well. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is the funny heart-breaking, wonderfully told story of how Emily discovers that it is possible to overcome the worst that life can throw at you, that it's never too late to make peace with your past, and that the right time is only ever now, as she finally starts again with her very own dog - the adorable Shih-tzu named Raymond.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rarewaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56450778005878,"sku":"9781473671386","price":10.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7504\/8033\/files\/orig_35737743.jpg?v=1760453956","url":"https:\/\/www.rarewaves.com\/products\/9781473671386-everybody-died-so-i-got-a-dog","provider":"Rarewaves.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
