Review # 1 was written on 2009-01-11 00:00:00 Jerry Loftis there are many reasons to describe sparky fights back as a truly remarkable book. one is the open-hearted candor with which the authors relate their struggle to save their beloved sparky from cancer as well as their own victories over the same disease. and yet another is the courageous humor with which they arm themselves throughout that struggle. but perhaps most remarkable of all is the strength and depth of love that fills every heart-warming page.[return][return]aberjhani[return]author of "encyclopedia of the harlem renaissance"[return]and "visions of a skylark dressed in black"

Review # 2 was written on 2010-10-15 00:00:00 Michael Grassi Wonderful! Not just another book about people who love animals--this one is thoughtful, poignant, from an author who clearly champions animals and believes in the love they can offer if only given a chance. Learn about the pair of Great Pyrenees whose beating and abandonment resulted in each losing a leg. Now they live in an adult foster home/hospice where they offer residents love and companionship and check on each resident before retiring for the night, and who quietly sit nearby during the last moments of a resident's life. And the Beagle, Annie, who was found with a cracked nose, a broken jaw, and a missing eye, who, now rescued and safe, is content to be pet and loved on. Animals give so much to us!
