NASHVILLE, Aug. 8, 2025 /Standard Newswire/ — The Adventures of Chai Rose began with a lovable little puppy and a big idea: even the smallest hearts can carry a royal purpose. With the release of Refining of the Royal Puppy, author and educator Karissa Mironas (née Wheeler) continues her treasured children’s series — now carrying deeper meaning as a tribute to the real-life inspiration, her five-year-old Morkie, Chai Rose, who passed away unexpectedly last month.

“This book was written before Chai Rose passed, and it’s such a gift to have one more story inspired by her sweet, spunky spirit,” says Mironas. “She was so much more than a pet — she was a companion, a comfort, and a reminder that even in life’s messiest moments, we are being shaped for something beautiful. I hope this story encourages every child learning to trust the process, and every family who has loved and lost a pet who changed their lives.”

The sequel to Reveal of the Royal Puppy, Refining of the Royal Puppy follows Chai Rose as she learns lessons about obedience, change, and the quiet strength that comes from inner growth. Illustrated by Justin Steward, the book reminds children ages 5 and under that transformation — though often uncomfortable — is always part of a greater purpose.

The loss of Chai Rose adds touching depth to the book’s release. For parents and educators, it offers both a whimsical bedtime story and a gateway into meaningful conversations about hope, resilience, and the ways love leaves a lasting legacy.
