Animal Madness, published by Humanaitas, is an essay written by author Laurel Braitman, who spent seven years searching for animals with heartache after the death of her dog Oliver. The book explores how humans and animals can have a better relationship by examining the mental illnesses suffered by animals. It also shows how animals and humans can heal each other’s wounds through interaction, suggesting that animals’ hearts are no different from our own.

Everyday Practices is inspired by author Laurel Breitman’s dog, Oliver, and illustrates the signs of separation anxiety in dogs, which can be seen if you look closely. Illustrator Mi-ok Hwang captures the author’s warm and sensitive gaze toward animals in her detailed pencil drawings.
