About this listen

Have you ever wondered what a pet's life was like before they found themselves at a rescue? What if they were able to tell their own stories?

Copper is a big red dog who is curious about the other animals he has come to live with. He begins asking questions and discovers each of their tales, learning valuable life lessons about tolerance, acceptance, family, and love along the way. This heartwarming story is told from the pet's perspective to educate people about the various situations pets encounter that ultimately result in their rescue and subsequent search for a safe home. Proceeds from the sale of this book will be donated to various pet rescue groups.

Copper and His Rescue Friends is a story that will draw young readers into the lives of some amazing animals and may even inspire them to learn more about rescuing animals.

This story would make a great addition to a classroom, a veterinarian's office, a rescue facility, and animal rights and rescue groups. Above all, it needs to be in the hands of children, so that they can grow up to be educated and inspired by "Copper and his Rescue Friends."
