True Love: 24 Surprising Stories of Animal Affection Hardcover – January 1, 2013

I bought this as a gift for an elderly relative, but I feel it is more appropriate for a juvenile reader. The stories are very short and sweet- more details would have added tremendously to the book's appeal. I say this because I know a few of the stories and felt there was so much more to add.The book also has cute and wonderful photographs inserted between some of the stories that are paired with a quote from someone famous or a simple caption. But there is no story for these and that just left me asking questions.I absolutely love the cover photo of the kitten under the dog's ear, but alas the cover shot has no story!!! Do these two live together? Are they friends or was this just a photographer's adorable creation? You won't find the answer in this book.Despite good photography, I was really disappointed in this book.

The pictures are adorable and the book is great for kids or adults alike who love animals.

Boy what a pick me up!!

Anyone that comes over to our house picks up this book and usually ends up reading one or 2 of the short stories. They show my kids how compassionate animals can be to each other when one needs help or love! It reminds me of a book I had as a kid . Reader's Digest, (I think). It was called short stories about Animal's we love! I still have the book from the late 1960's!

I read these stories to my grandchildren. They enjoy them...as do any adults who are in hearing distance.

I bought this book for a gift for my mom. I skimmed through it before wrapping it up and fell in love with the stories and the unusual friendships portrayed. It is a sweet view of relationships.

Oh my! Get the third box of Kleenex and hug your dog all day! How wonderful are these relatives whose unconditional love reminds us of the wonder and beauty of all Creator's gifts of life.

awesome

All perfect! 5 stars from me. Thank you very much

Lovely addition to any animal lovers book collections - shows how pure and instinctive animals hearts and souls are - how the connect to all others - adorable pictures also.
