Subject: [tabi] A good read...
Hello and Happy Veterans Day Everyone,
To the readers among us, read on... Wanted to tell you about a great book I
just read. A non-fiction jewel. I enjoyed
every page of this lovely read! Love story, animal, heart warmer
Homers Odyssey by: Gwen Cooper.
The last thing Gwen Cooper wanted was another cat. She already had two, not to
mention a phenomenally underpaying job and recently broken heart. Then Gwens
veterinarian called with a story about a three-week-old eyeless kitten whod
been abandoned. It was love at first sight. Everybody warned that Homer would
always be an underachiever. But the kitten nobody believed in quickly grew
into a three-pound dynamo with a giant heart who eagerly made friends with
every human who crossed his path. Homer scaled seven-foot bookcases with ease,
survived being trapped alone for days after 9/11 in an apartment near
the World Trade Center, and even saved Gwens life when he chased off an
intruder who broke into their home in the middle of the night. But it was
Homers unswerving loyalty, his infinite capacity for love, and his joy in the
face of all obstacles
that transformed Gwens life. And by the time she met the man she would marry,
she realized that Homer had taught her the most valuable lesson of all: Love
isnt something you see with your eyes.
A Miami native, Cooper spent 5 years working in non-profit administration,
marketing and fundraising. What brings this even closer to home for me is
that she coordinated volunteer activities for the Miami Lighthouse for the
Blind.
Hope youll enjoy it as much as I did.
Sila
