Each month SWIVL showcases a book that exemplifies the spirit of ViolenceFree. For the month of January 2010 is a love story of joy, hope, sadness, and renewal - Rescuing Sprite, by Mark R. Levin.
The human and animal connection is one that begins when we are very small and lasts for a life time. Most of us can remember with love and affection the companion animals that were part of our family when we were small. Whether we are socialized or it’s in our DNA, the bond we feel for nonhuman animals is powerful and everlasting. So too, is the sadness and personal loss we feel when we lose our companion friends. Rescuing Sprite, by Mark R. Levin, is a story that describes the essence of relationships that live with us all our lives. It is both a love story and a description of hope and renewal. Equally important, this is a story of family and friendship that gently confirms the importance of love and compassion to the human condition.
