Book Description
Every child possesses the innate ability to hear, see, feel or simply know what animals are communicating. In this delightful trilogy by Amazon bestselling author Sandra Mendelson, children are taken on a journey to discover the "animal wisdom ways" that are the keys to communicating with all Life. A dog named Mister T acts as a guide to encounters with different animals around the neighborhood (Book 1), on a farm (Book 2) and in the oceans, forests, jungles, plains and deserts of the world (Book 3). Each animal reveals a secret insight that fosters deeper connection with the animal world. Through the language of rhyme, children are led to see animals with compassion and understanding, build confidence in their own intuition and "inner voice," listen to signals from their bodies, cultivate patience, move through fear, experience the peace and love inside themselves, and much more. The Secrets of the Animals is the second installment in the We Walk Beside You series. Sandra Mendelson's first book We Walk Beside You: Animal Messages for an Awakening World, and the animal message cards of the same name, are being called "a ground-breaking and captivating exploration into new possibilities that our world of living beings has to offer."

Book Description
"Within a day of receiving this book, I had consumed it... Absorbing, moving, and compulsively readable."—Lydia Davis In this affectionate, heart-warming chronicle, Rosamund Young distills a lifetime of organic farming wisdom, describing the surprising personalities of her cows and other animals At her famous Kite's Nest Farm in Worcestershire, England, the cows (as well as sheep, hens, and pigs) all roam free. They make their own choices about rearing, grazing, and housing. Left to be themselves, the cows exhibit temperaments and interests as diverse as our own. "Fat Hat" prefers men to women; "Chippy Minton" refuses to sleep with muddy legs and always reports to the barn for grooming before bed; "Jake" has a thing for sniffing the carbon monoxide fumes of the Land Rover exhaust pipe; and "Gemima" greets all humans with an angry shake of the head and is fiercely independent. An organic farmer for decades, Young has an unaffected and homely voice. Her prose brims with genuine devotion to the wellbeing of animals. Most of us never apprehend the various inner lives animals possess, least of all those that we might eat. But Young has spent countless hours observing how these creatures love, play games, and form life-long friendships. She imparts hard-won wisdom about the both moral and real-world benefits of organic farming. (If preserving the dignity of animals isn't a good enough reason for you, consider how badly factory farming stunts the growth of animals, producing unhealthy and tasteless food.) This gorgeously-illustrated book, which includes an original introduction by the legendary British playwright Alan Bennett, is the summation of a life's work, and a delightful and moving tribute to the deep richness of animal sentience.
