Inspiring lessons of patience, trust, compassion, healing, and love from the animals who hold a cherished place in our homes and hearts Animals have the amazing ability to fulfill the most basic human needs: love, affection, companionship, even survival. Their positive influence can have a profound effect on our everyday lives. Since founding the Angel Animals organization in 1996, Allen and Linda Anderson have heard from thousands of people worldwide, who have shared personal stories of how animals have enriched their lives. Angel Animals is a collection of these testaments--an inspiring tapestry of tales spotlighting the spiritual truths that animals teach. From dogs, cats, and horses, to bears, dolphins, and deer, the animals featured in Angel Animals have not only led people to rediscover the meaning of courage, loyalty, and forgiveness . . . but they have also proven that miracles are possible. "Angel Animals says it all on our love and need for animals in our lives."--Roger Caras, President Emeritus, American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals
