My dad gave this to me for my birthday 😊

It took a few chapters for me to get into this true story, but it really is inspiring.

An older woman with failing health and a failing farm in Maine decides to get on her horse and ride across the country to California.

Her faithful dog accompanies her as they set out on the adventure of a lifetime.

Suet624 I‘m so glad to see someone is reading this book and hearing her story. I LOVED this book. (edited) 1d

The book discusses Pelzer's struggling with his ability to fit in and adapt to the new environment around him as he is put into foster care. It also talks about the kindness of his foster parents and other people around him as well as his inability to brush his mother aside.

3.75⭐️ I really liked the book. I really liked the first two parts of the book, but am kinda ho-hum about the final part. I did a combo read with the audiobook and it very likely coloured how I felt about the book. Found it very interesting. #2024 #nonfiction #indigenious #truestory #truecrime

Starting this one. Chapter one was a crazy chapter. What a way to start off a book. This was recommended to me by a friend. And the stuff happened 45 minutes away from where i live. So that makes it more interesting.

Enjoying this book so far. After working with animals myself I know the horrors and pains of not only the animals but people you come across in the animal world. This book gives me vibes of This is Going to Hurt Animal Edition with the caring fantastastical job that so many children grow up wanting to do and the sh*tshow honest reality that it is. #truestory #autobiography #animaljobs #veterinary

Winter 1970, Daly City, California—I‘m alone. I‘m hungry and I‘m shivering in the dark. I sit on top of my hands at the bottom of the stairs in the garage. My head is tilted backward.

This was left in our LFL and I wanted to read it because our pibble‘s name is Winnie. Turns out it‘s the true backstory of Winnie the Pooh, for whom said pibble is named. The author is the great granddaughter of the veterinarian who bought a bear cub from a trapper at a train station (as one does) while on his way to serve in WWI. A touching story, and there are photos of the real Winnie in the back. ❤️❤️❤️
