Susie's Tale Hand with Paw We Changed the Law

Autor Donna Lawrence Editat de Lynn Bemer Coble
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 22 mar 2012
Author Donna Lawrence has written an inspiring, motivational picture book about courage, devotion, and forgiveness. The book, Susie's Tale, is a heartwarming and heartwrenching account of Donna's relationship with an abandoned and abused puppy.Ultimately their victory-with the help of other supporters-was the unanimous passage of legislation to provide judges with the option of giving stiffer punishments to those who have abused animals to help prevent animal cruelty. Susie, the puppy that was found in a Greensboro park, recounts this tale. At the tender age of ten weeks, Susie had been beaten, burned, and left all alone to die. However, Susie's will to live had given her the strength to survive her ten-day ordeal in the park. One year earlier, Donna had been attacked brutally by a pit bull, and she had also managed to survive. Donna met Susie, got to know her, and helped care for her. After a long search for a permanent home for Susie, Donna and her husband Roy adopted her. Over time, Susie helped Donna learn to trust and respect dogs again. And Donna and Roy reassured Susie so that she could do the same. Their healing journey led them to the North Carolina capital on a quest that ended with the passage and signing of Susie's Law. Susie's Tale is an inspiration to people of all ages. Its message is one of love, hope, and forgiveness. It's also about getting a second chance at life and running full speed ahead with it. This true story reminds us that one person-or even one animal-can make a positive change in our world. This picture book has been written for children in first through third grades. The realistic artwork has been beautifully created by Jennifer Tipton Cappoen, who also designed the book and covers.

Notă biografică

Donna Lawrence writes in the genre of women's fiction set in historical periods, even touching on coming-of-age in small-town America. Miss Virginia and the Sweet Sisters is her debut novel. A collection of short stories and poetry is scheduled for release soon. Her poetry is published in a compilation and has been featured in newspapers. As of 2020 and 2021, two of her poems are featured on the 9/11 Memorial Website. Her writing career started when she received her first diary at the age of eleven. Her love of all things literary and her creative pursuits grew from this early age to the present day. As an artist, she enjoys expressing herself on paper using pen and ink as a medium. Writing music lyrics is another favorite pastime. She likes a story that is well-told and intelligent with well-developed characters. She is a history and movie buff who enjoys a variety of genres, especially historical or romantic. Born and raised in Kentucky, she was known affectionately as DaMarie. She has been a longtime resident of Colorado. Both states hold special meaning, and the many experiences she's had are ones she draws on in my writing. She posts monthly on her personal blog, which provides an outlet when not working on her latest manuscript or enjoying the brilliant sunshine of Colorado's blue skies.
