Susan Chernak McElroy credits her astounding triumph over cancer to the love of the animals in her life. In Animals as Teachers & Healers she shares her remarkable story along with true stories from others who have been touched by the loving energies of animals. A woman escapes an abusive relationship by observing how her boyfriend treated her two Arabian horses… a German shepherd cocoons its body around a toddler during a house fire…a coyote gives a couple wisdom about their rebellious daughter…a little three-legged frog imparts a valuable lesson to a frightened nine-year-old girl. Unique and compelling, Animals as Teachers & Healers invites us to reconnect with the boundless gifts of joy, wisdom, and deep healing that flow from our ageless and intimate relationship with the animal kingdom. "Must reading
for anyone who has ever loved an animal." "Stirring, emotional,
and important…For anyone who's ever owned a pet, this kaleidoscope of
emotions will elicit tears, laughter, and some very special memories." "Filled with parables
of a delicate, philosophical nature." "Heartwarming and
inspirational." "Compelling." About The Author: A former technical writer and editor, Susan Chernak McElroy has enjoyed a lifelong love affair with animals.
