Ten True Animal Rescues

I grew up in a small Vermont town across the street from a farm. I loved animals and wanted a pet desperately, but my parents wouldn't let me have one. One of the first things I did when I was an adult and livng on my own was to adopt a kitten. I was also a kid who loved to be outside, expecially when I could be walking in the woods or riding my bike. Having pets and loving nature are key ideas in TEN TRUE ANIMAL RESCUES and in my PONY PALS book series.

I was inspired to write TEN TRUE ANIMAL RESUCES by a magazine article I read about animals who rescued people. I wanted kids to have a chance to read about animal heroes, too. So I started researching animal heroes and wrote up my favorite stories. I had graet fun working on this book. It was especially interesting when I was able to inerview people who had been rescued by their pets. I wish I could have met some of the animals.

Most people benefit from owning a pet - children and adults. Pets can be playmates and helpmates. Some pets provide invaluable service - like leading the blind. Some - like ponies and horses - provide transportation. Others - like cats, dogs, hamsters, guinea pigs, and fish - are great company. If you pay close attention to animals, you can learn other ways of communicating with them besides using our people language.
