Description

Heartwarming true stories and pictures of rescued farm animals, great and small—from chickens to horses, and piglets to cows. Some stories change your life, some events change your life, but a single act of kindness can save a life. Meet Ruby, the working dog who got a second chance and found her perfect job, and Macho, the orphaned alpaca who found happiness among his sheepy friends. Then there's Edgar Alan Pig, Ginger the chirping chicken, Lucky Bunny, Othello the goat, Coco the duckling, Miss Marple the cow. . . and many more. These heartwarming stories provide a glimpse into a world where the smallest kindness can have a great ripple effect, and where animals bring out the best in people.
