Peg Kehret has long been known to her readers as the author who loves animals.
In this loving memoir, she recounts the joys and challenges of her life on a small animal sanctuary.
She rescues a mother cat and her kittens who were shot with a pellet gun, and discovers a black bear on her porch, staring at her through the window. She studies the animals and birds she encounters, attempting to improve the lives of band-tail pigeons and starving deer.
