ABOUT THIS BOOK
This lively story is divided in three parts -- letters from
Suzie to a cat in the street and other epistles, fragments of e-mail
messages about Suzie after her death and pieces of Mommy's journal about
her.
Due to its visages of fiction, such as a dog who writes letters,
the book can be catalogued as fantasy. However, it's based on our
experiences together, real facts such as her life as a working dog and
the pet of an animal lover mommy. Suzie and I have had a very close
relationship and we were so tuned with each other that I have been able
to translate her feelings and thoughts into words. For that reason I
sincerely can state that Suzie and I wrote this book together. We began
writing this story soon after I brought her home, full of hopes and
plans for a future that I imagined endless. Life is unpredictable, my
Suzie departed unexpectedly and I had to walk alone the rest of the
road.
Suzie, a gorgeous and clever German Shepherd Seeing Eye Dog,
writes letters to a cat in the street. In these letters she describes
her life as an ingenious working dog as well as the adored pet of an
animal lover mommy who stimulates her emotionally and intellectually.
The reader also learns about the life of her friend Cat and her
struggles to survive in a city that each day turns more hostile to
animals due to the construction of new buildings and constant
deforestation.
The core of this book is the extraordinary and unique love
relationship between this dog and her human. Other topics present in
this volume are animal rights, the exploitation of animals,
vegetarianism, natural healing and the environment, as well as the void,
sadness and loneliness of the author when her beloved dog passed away,
the emotional support of other humans and the spiritual connection
between Suzie and her mommy through the invisible silver cord called
LOVE.
The book is witty, colorful, ingenious, sentimental... It makes
you laugh and cry. This is a subject that animal lovers of all ages
would enjoy reading. Besides being very entertaining, it also can be
very helpful for people who have lost a dear animal.
This book is a written homage to my unforgettable beloved dog
Suzie who is waiting for me at Rainbow Bridge.
