NOTE: I am receiving so many requests for a printable version of How
Could You?, that I am making one available. Please see the How Could You? page for download instructions.
Pieces of My Heart - Writings Inspired by Animals and
Nature is not easily categorized. It includes much published
favorites and all new writings. If "How Could You?" has made you cry,
"The Basset Chronicles" have made you laugh," if "We Are
Their Heroes" has inspired you, and "The Zen of Cat" has
comforted you, then you already know the author's range and ability to write
from the heart, to the hearts of those who love animals. In Pieces of My Heart, Jim Willis pulls out all the
stops with an array of poetry and prose, essays, memoirs, and short stories.
His writings deal with our improbable and amusing shared lives with pets,
personal loss, coping with grief, and a deeper appreciation of animals and all
of creation. He writes from the viewpoint of an experienced rescuer and animal
guardian, and his writings encompass dogs, cats, wolves, horses, wildlife, and
all species. He concludes with a useful Appendix of suggestions for helping
animals and organizations, and resources from the world wide web. This is both
a book you will personally cherish and one you will give to others to inspire
and educate.
