Divine Messengers of Wisdom and Compassion

Some of these extraordinary true stories will make you smile. Others will bring tears to you eyes. Each one will open your heart to new revelations of love in its many forms and shapes.

Dogs, cats, horses, ferrets, birds, rabbits, snakes, dolphins, llamas – the animals in this book reveal compassion, teach hope and forgiveness, or serve as a barometer to measure feelings.

After reading just one of these stories, you will observe the animals in your own path with new eyes and find yourself awakening to deeper, and often startling, spiritual insights about animals as mirrors to the soul.
