Publisher's summary

Is there a universal language of love, a "kinship with all life" that can open new horizons of experience?

Example after example in this unique classic—from "Strongheart" the actor-dog to "Freddie" the fly—resounds with entertaining and inspiring proof that communication with animals is a wonderful, indisputable fact. All that is required is an attitude of openness, friendliness, humility, and a sense of humor to part the curtain and form bonds of real friendship.

For anyone who loves animals, for all those who have ever experienced the special devotion only a pet can bring, Kinship with All Life is an unqualified delight. After listening to this book, you will never encounter "just a dog" again, but rather a fellow member of nature's own family.

How All Living Beings are Important

This was a terrific book about how if we listen to animals they can teach us about how we can live with each other and respect each other boundaries. The book also talks about, how the use of words to describe animals is how we condition ourselves to feel about them without any thought if what we think is true, and that animals can pickup on emotion and will react accordingly.
I myself have done some of the things mention in the book and they have actually work to solve some problems. I have also come to the belief when an animal happens to come into my house it isn't with any ill intent, so I help it back outside. I also respect the fact that the outside belongs to the animal kingdom and not to humans, even though we think so, and I respect their space and try not to put my belongs outside that may cause distress between.
I believe that there aren't any bad animals but misinformed humans who believe in legends instead of facts.

I want to thank Post Hypnotic Press Audiobooks for an advance copy of this wonderful look at how all life is related.

Animal Lovers will LOVE this audiobook!

This book was recommended by a friend because our family rescued a German Shepard a few years ago. She sent us a print copy, but I love audiobooks, so when I saw this, I downloaded it right away. Very enjoyable. The narration was great. I felt like I was listening to the author, not a narrator.

This is not the sort of book I usually listen to - it's a bit "woo woo" but in a very good way. The writing is GREAT! Allen J Boone's conversational style is easy to follow and he has a great sense of humor. If Boone were alive today, I would want to meet him.

The star of this book is Strongheart, the very first movie dog star. I didn't know anything about Strongheart before reading this book, but what an amazing dog! And I loved the author's attitude toward caring for Strongheart - he was so open and receptive to learning from Strongheart - and other animals. Boone believed he could communicate with animals and insects, and credits Strongheart for teaching him.

Whether you believe in animal communication or not, you will find this audiobook entertaining, heartwarming, and surprising. I highly recommend it.
