Overview

The day after yesterday wasn't just any day. It was the day Gilroy found the Rainbow Bridge. When thirteen-year-old Gilroy, a spirited red cairn terrier, takes his final car ride, he wakes to a place of sunlight, streams, and endless meadows-a place where nothing hurts, and joy runs as deep as the water he loves to splash in. But something's missing: his mom . . . and his favourite ball. As he explores this breathtaking new world, Gilroy meets the animals who came before him-his mom's cherished companions, from wise old Ernie and playful Pepper to majestic horses and aloof cats, each of whom knew her in lives past. With every wag, nuzzle, nicker, and splash, Gilroy learns he's part of a bigger story, one that spans lifetimes and connects hearts across distance, memory, and the soft shimmer of the Rainbow Bridge. Tender, lyrical, and full of heart, Gilroy's Journey, The Day After Yesterday is a celebration of the bond between pets and their people-a gentle and hopeful tale for anyone who's ever had to say goodbye. Whether you're six or sixty, this is a story for those who believe that love carries on.
