Compelling, fascinating, and most important highly moral.

A must-read that I couldnt put down, Rescued will move you to action.

Marc Bekoff, professor of biology at the University of Colorado

Rescued serves as a reminder that saving animals precious lives is not only noble but also a moral imperative.

States (Hollywood Office) and retired executive producer of Genesis Awards

Dr. Marty Becker, resident veterinarian on Good Morning America

Hurricane Katrina taught us that public policy must be revised to reflect the love between people and their nonhuman family members. Rescued is a finely written, touching, and important book that will warm the hearts of all readers whose animals are an indispensable part of the family.

Karen Dawn, founder of the animal advocacy media watch DawnWatch.com

Praise for Angel Dogs

Reading Angel Dogs: Divine Messengers of Comfort is like taking a walk in the park on a sunny day with your favorite dog. This wonderful collection of stories will bring back memories of the sweet, delightful, and touching times you have spent with your own loyal canine friends.

from the foreword by Willard Scott of NBCs Today Show

The Andersons have done it again! Angel Dogs is a healing and heartopening book. Highly recommended.

Doreen Virtue, PhD, author of Angel Medicine and Healing with the Angels

Praise for Angel Cats

Angels come to us in many ways. Some are never identified, and some come to us and we dont even know they changed our lives, maybe even saved us, until there is a realization. This book is enlightening and will make you take many a close look at your angel.

Tippi Hedren, actress and animal activist

As a believer and one who lives the message, my heart was touched by Angel Cats. I have long realized that it is not an accident that three-quarters of our lifeline is feline. So read, laugh, cry, and become a more complete human being through the angel cats and the lifeline they provide.

Dr. Bernie S. Siegel, author of 365 Prescriptions for the Soul
and Love, Medicine & Miracles

Praise for Rainbows and Bridges: An Animal Companion Memorial Kit

If you are facing or have faced the loss of a beloved animal friend, let this kit be your companion and your comfort. There exists no better exploration of this landscape of loss than you will find here.

Susan Chernak McElroy, author of Animals as Teachers & Healers
and All My Relations

Praise for Gods Messengers

To speak of lower animals is both arrogant and blasphemous. All traditional peoples have viewed animals as messengers and mediators of the divine, which is a lesson we need to relearn. Gods Messengers is a bold reminder that consciousness takes many forms and is not restricted to humans.

Larry Dossey, MD, author of Healing Beyond the Body and Healing Words

As a lifelong animal lover, I am delighted to see them celebrated in such a positive way. You and your pet will enjoy reading this together.

Betty White, author and actress
