Almost Perfect: Disabled Pets and the People Who Love Them
In a world that reveres perfection and disdains anything less, most of us realize that nothing--and no one--can truly measure up. And yet, when it comes to choosing companion animals, most folks won't settle for less. These stories are about those animals who--through birth or injury--have been rendered less than perfect, and the humans who found love enough to welcome them into their hearts and homes. Almost Perfect allows you to share the immeasurable rewards those people have found.
The book will be published by Enspirio House, an imprint of Word Forge Books. Release date is Sept. 15, 2008. ISBN: 978-0-9771329-2-8.
Almost Perfect: Disabled Pets and the People Who Love Them was profiled by Publishers Weekly earlier this month.
A portion of proceeds from book sales will go to Animal Welfare Karpathos.
