Faithfully Yours by Peggy Frezon | Book Review



I'm delighted to be part of the Faithfully Yours Blog Book Tour announcing the release of Peggy Frezon's new book Faithfully Yours: The Amazing Bond Between Us and the Animals We Love.

Faithfully Yours is an uplifting examination of the bond we share with the animals in our life.  Peggy uses a great many amazing and touching stories to show that connection via the themes of devotion, protections, acceptance, rescue, healing, compassion, guidance, comfort, faithfulness, and love.  As she weaves these stories into a whole, Peggy shares own personal experiences with the animals in her own life.

Though there are certainly dogs in these stories, there are a host of other animals.  Among others you'll meet:

• A schnauzer that rescued his owner after a devastating lighting strike.
• A 40-foot whale that shocked her rescuers when she helped to save a baby whale trapped in a fishing net.
• A miniature horse that guides a blind teacher.
• A cat that comforts stressed-out college students. As well as people who love animals in extraordinary ways:
• The dog trainer who transformed an unwanted shelter dog into a Broadway star.
• The man who became a voice for the humane treatment of farm animals.
• The woman who gave up everything to help street dogs and, in turn, learned lessons of trust and love.

These are heart warming stories and though most have a very happy ending, you may want to have some tissues handy.  As I read, Peggy's words called to my mind so many of the animals who have shared my life.  So, they were happy tears.

I highly recommend this book to any animal lover, especially if you enjoy the Chicken Soup for the Soul books.  

Faithfully Yours is available on Amazon in both hardcover and Kindle editions.  Published by Paraclete Press (October 1, 2015).  
176 pages. ISBN-10: 161261602X  ISBN-13: 978-1612616025
