"This book is so beautiful. It has tons of stories about animals that will make you laugh and cry. It made me look at my own dog in a new way. In what ways does she choose to do good? It also reminds us that, overall, the way we treat animals in our society is abysmal. Thank goodness for people like those in the stories and the author of this book who are urging us to wake up and see animals the way the really are. Overall, it was a fast and satisfying read."
"Unabashedly cried many times while reading this book. Ah, animals... this book made me think of a dog I had in Brazil, named Piggy. I was really sick for a few days, sicker than I've ever been, and instead of jumping on the bed and roughhousing with me like he usually would do, Piggy curled up on the hard tile floor. When I looked over the bed, he was right under me, and always looking up worriedly whenever I looked down. The comfort this dog gave was amazing. I LOVED that dog. And I LOVED this book!"
"This is a deeply affecting book that shows the power of unconditional love and the animals who provide it. There are some anthropomorphising moments, but all in all, it's well done, engagingly told, and touching."
