About this listen

Ernie Castellano, fast-talking wheeler-dealer kid, has come up with his greatest idea yet: pet funerals! With his pals Dusty (an artist in coffins) and Swimming Pool (one of the world's great criers, an asset to any funeral she attends), Ernie creates a thriving business-and manages to land himself in more hot water than he has ever dreamed possible.

High-spirited, hilarious, and unexpectedly touching, The Beloved Dearly is a sparkling debut for a major new voice in books for young readers.

What the critics say

"This highly stylized novel is something kids won't have seen before, with characters who seem to have jumped out of a Damon Runyon story." (Booklist)
"Witty, clever, yet touching, this first novel has certain kid appeal." (School Library Journal)
