A Friend Like Henry

Nuala Gardner's recounting feels deeply genuine. I'm curious what motivated her to write this touching account and how much of it was drawn from her own experiences.

Henry seems like such a special dog, almost like a character. Did others find that the dog's perspective or behavior made the story more vivid or emotional?

The story highlights a powerful connection, but I wonder if it might also influence how people view the role of pets in supporting autistic individuals.
