Synopsis

Adrian Raeside has created a magical tale of adventure for pet lovers of all ages in his colourful, animated book, The Rainbow Bridge. Using his gift for creating spunky characters and blithe outlook on life, Raeside has created a valuable fable for anyone who cherishes the companionship of their family pet.

Readers are introduced to seven-year-old Rick and his beloved dog Koko who are inseparable. They cavort in the swimming hole, chase each other through the fields, play fetch and wrestle. But their relationship changes as Koko grows old and his health declines.

When circumstances change, Rick is woken by Buster, a flatulent but well-intentioned messenger dog, who suddenly appears at the boy's bedside. Buster ferries Rick to a magical paradise for pets that fills Rick's heart with joy. A place where cats burrow through fields of catnip, no couch is off-limits to dogs and frisbees are flung endlessly. This mysterious adventure is truly a holiday miracle!

Adrian Raseide captures the special bond between humans and their pets, and with marvelous illustrations, brings a gentle humour to a story that will resonate with children and pet lovers of all ages.
