Mary Peters is a wonder! Not only does she have an exceptional talent for lovingly training dogs (and her cat), but she wrote and illustrated a book sharing this beautiful story with others. She’s so relatable—anxious, feeling like she didn’t belong, but she found a way to make her life better and those who follow her on social media. School counselors should share this book with struggling students. Kids who want to work with animals, be a writer or an artist should read this book. It’s inspiring in every good way. I have incredible respect and admiration for Mary—she could be any of us! But what she chose to fill that pain is so incredibly beautiful, gentle, and kind. I have been a fan for a long time. I hope there will be more books from this incredibly gifted young woman!
