Guide Review - Book Review: Boomerang - A Miracle Trilogy

Boomerang - A Miracle Trilogy is written by an author who genuinely loves animals, particularly a Boston Terrier named Boomerang. As noted by the title, this is a trilogy -- 3 books in one. The story begins at the beginning; the birth of Boomerang. The new puppy named Boomerang has a seious (unamed) health problem early on. He then recovers, but then crosses Rainbow Bridge at a young age. The author chronicles her life with Boomerang, what life was like for her after his passing, and their eventual joyful 'reunion'. This book shows that love is where you find it, and by looking and wondering about the world around you, one can find meaning and purpose. I enjoyed the quotations throughout the book, accenting and emphasizing the story line.
