The Heart's Gift is a story of growth, maturity and personal triumph. It transcends generations. It is simply a story that carries the tenderness and passion of a mother's diary into the pages of a tenacious journal. The book comes alive with expressions of personal hopes and dreams as it transcribes real events in the world of motherhood and business. 
The book poignantly captures the experiences of a woman who is unexpectedly catapulted into a new phase of adulthood and an emotional quest for independence. Her child's hospitalizations spark a thirst for learning about the healthcare community and the business world, which ultimately leads the author from her domestic duties to Graduate School and a professional career. As her marriage crumbles, she emerges with a new passion for living. In letters of reflection to Jill, the author describes her first decade as a businesswoman, a career counterbalanced with life as a single mother. The challenge she faces brings her to the realization that, at times, she is growing up right along with her children. 
The Heart's Gift is a woman's memoir of letters written to her daughter, who was born with a severe congenital heart malformation from which no child had ever survived. The journal chronicles her daughter's life, describing in intimate detail how the child's illness impacted her mother's personal growth. The twenty-one years from Jill's birth to the completion of the book represents a spiritual passage for the author -- one that helps define her true essence as a woman. 
The Heart's Gift presents the author's philosophy gleaned from her journey. The author reminds us that there are "Gifts" in life from which we can learn about ourselves to become stronger, more empowered individuals.

The Official Book of the Sealyham Terrier, written by renowned author Muriel Lee, is the definitive book on the Sealyham and will be of consuming and long-term interest for the potential Sealyham owner, breeder, judge, and antiquarian. This book delineates the history of the breed beginning in the 1850s in Wales, its first appearance in the show ring in England in 1910, and its travel across the pond to be shown for the first time in the United States in 1912. A history of those stalwart individuals whose dedication and efforts went into the making up of what the Sealyham Terrier is today is included. The Sealyham is sporting, game, courageous, and has a charming nature. He is truly "a big dog in a small space." He is most affectionate, and while he has a big bark, he doesn't use it indiscriminately. He is very intelligent and has a fine sense of humor. This book will tell you all you need to know about the history and character of the breed and it will guide you in all aspects of living with a Sealyham Terrier, from selecting, raising, and breeding to grooming and showing your friend. There are over 150 black and white and color photographs dating from 1915 to 2002.

The puppyhood accident that gave Leo human speech also thrust him into a life of seesawing fear and jubilation. Confused by the more subtle actions of humans, not to mention the lies people tell, Leo worries that his supercanine abilities will lead to scientific research--on his poor brain. Unsuccessful in his attempt to become a champion racer, Leo gets a second shot at fame when, in retirement, he is adopted by film star Douglas Drake and supermodel Amaranth Drueten. But the celebrity pair want Leo only for his fabulous looks, and he quickly learns that happiness comes from love--not posh digs and photo shoots. Resolved to have a better life, Leo first surmounts the limitations of his canine anatomy--then races from whimpering cowardice to heroic courage. Along the way, he becomes an accidential matchmaker. And he finds that some people are just as honest and loyal as dogs.
