Animals as Teachers and Healers
True Stories and Reflections
Susan Chernak McElroy
$14.95
|
 |
|
|
What a journey this book is! And what a warm and invigorating
reminder of the goodness with which our Earth was created.
Susan McElroy began her journey toward writing this book when
she discovered that she had cancer. As a part of her healing,
she reconnected with her love for animals and forged links
between herself and the animal kingdom that she had previously
forgotten she had even wanted. In this process, she also spoke
to and listened to others, gathering story after story about
the amazing love and care that is possible between humans
and animals and between animals and animals. The result is
a book that nourishes the readers soul as it brings yet another
drop of healing to the strife between human beings and the
natural world. A wonderful gift for yourself, teenagers and
adults!

Animals as Guides for the Soul
Susan Chernak McElroy
$13.95
|
 |
|
|
Although Susan McElroy thought her work was done when she
published Animals as Teachers and Healers, the truth
is that it was only beginning. It soon became clear to her
that many people longed for the loving connection to the animal
world which she offered and that the animal world in turn
had even deeper wisdom and healing to offer. In Animals
as Guides for the Soul, McElroy has created a passionate
and eloquent portrait of the truths and revelations she and
others have experienced in their daily encounters with animals.
As she reminds us, the fingerprint of God is often a pawprint.
Teens and adults will love this book!

Conversations with Animals
Cherished Messages and Memories as Told by an Animal Communicator
Lydia Hiby
with Bonnie S. Weintraub
$13.95
|
 |
|
|
Lydia Hiby, pictured on the cover of her book as a four-year-old
deep in conversation with her goose friend, did what most
of us do - she emerged from a childhood wherein she was in
constant communication with all creation and promptly forgot
that she or anyone could ever "talk to the animals." Imagine
her surprise when she - by now a confirmed skeptic - discovered
that she still knew how! Conversations with Animals is
much more than the story of this rediscovery, it is a deep
account of the lives of animals told by a wonderfully warm
and modest soul. Lydia's insights are all the more penetrating
because she truly knows how to stand aside and let the animal
speak for itself. You'll love this book!

When Elephants Weep
The Emotional Lives of Animals
Jeffrey Moussaieff Masson
with Susan McCarthy
$16.00
|
 |
|
|
I think I'll let Jane Goodall (whom I have loved and admired
since childhood) tell you about this book:
This is not only an important book, it is marvelous! If animals could read
they would be filled with joy and gratitude to the authors - as I am. It is scholarly,
vivid, and compelling. Please read it.
This is a truly great book - I also
hope you will read it. |

Dogs Never Lie About Love
Reflections on the Emotional World of Dogs
Jeffrey Moussaieff Masson
$14.00
|
 |
|
|
Myth, literature, scientific studies, personal stories, observation
and just plain LOVE guide the reader through the surprising
depth of canine emotional complexity, revealing what dog lovers
have always known, that our 'best friends' have a wonderful
and rich inner landscape. The author's own three dogs are
the centerpieces of the book and lead the way in his exploration
of a wide range of subjects - from emotions like gratitude,
compassion, loneliness, and disappointment to speculating
what dogs dream of and how their powerful sense of smell shapes
their perception of reality. As he sweeps aside old prejudices
about animal behavior, Masson reaches into a rich universe
of dog feeling to find its essential core: love. A great,
soul-warming journey.
