I recently read Raising Hare by Chloe Dalton, already mentioned here. It was absolutely fabulous and I have gifted it twice (so far). I enjoyed it as an Audible book.
I love his videos! Have you seen them? The way he commentates on their actions like a sports commentator. ![]()
The Soul of the Octopus by Sy Montgomery was delightful. (She has a new book out about the octopus but the first one is a fav). Additionally, Nat Geo has a fascinating 3 part documentary āSecrets of the Octopusā you might enjoy.
Watership Down by Richard Adams and Call of the Wild by Jack London.
The Art of Racing in the Rain by Garth Stein! I recommend it for all dog lovers and non-dog lovers !
Oooh, they made me cry like a baby. Great books!
I will always love āWhere the Red Fern Grows.ā Iāve read it several times and was delighted to be able to share it with my granddaughter when she was younger. And to this day, we often talk about this book especially when we are enjoying each others company over a cup or two of tea.
