What readers are saying:
I bought Angel's Forever Home for a friend's children a couple of weeks ago. What a perfectly wonderful story: a dog whose leg is hurt in a Chilean earthquake travels all the way to the U.S. in search of a family. There's a surprise twist in the plot when Angel succeeds. Reading it teared me up. A kids' book. Simple. Profound. Amazing. Kudos to our own local celeb authors Rita Gigante, Bobbie Sterchele-Gigante, Donna McDine, and local artist Renie Conklin De Mase. ~ Reviewed by Lorraine Ash, author - Self and Soul: On Creating a Meaningful Life
