A Sunday Surprise!

On By Lauren Scott, AuthorIn Book Reviews, Books

When I opened my email this morning, I was pleasantly surprised to find Thomas’ post where he shares his amazing review of King Copper. More gratitude is what I feel, and I’m thankful to say (respectfully) that the support just keeps coming. Thank you again, Thomas, for reading my collection about Copper, and for taking the time to write such a moving review. 🙏

Our beloved Copper Boy

The Life of a Dog named Copper by Thomas Wikman

Copper, a rescue Chocolate Lab, was picked up from a foster home in March of 2012 by a loving family and in return they received 13 years of unconditional love from Copper, who turned out to be a quite remarkable dog. This touching and beautiful book recounts his life in the form of poetry. What better way to tell the life of a dog, than through poetry. Some of the poems are from Copper’s perspective and some of them are from the author’s perspective. Some of the poems are fun, some speak of love, and some speak of grief. I think that everyone who’s ever owned dogs will recognize themselves in this book. I certainly did.

Dogs have personalities, they can express themselves, they are innocent, they are fun, they are loving, they can sense your mood and feelings, and they want to comfort you when you are sad. They love you and they can do amazing things, and they are part of the family. All of this is beautifully expressed in this book. This is a heartwarming book that will leave no heart untouched…

Thomas also wrote a touching book about his beloved Leonberger, Bronco.
I loved this book and am currently working on my 5-star review. ⭐️

So, if you’re a dog lover or cat lover, or pet parent in general, Thomas and I have books that will touch your heart. ❤️❤️

Thanks for dropping in, and I wish you a lovely week. 🧡🍁🍂
