A Girl's Best Friend cover

The best-selling book that started the series exploring the significance of animals in women’s lives. Eighty-six women and girls from all across the globe contributed to this beautiful collection of stories, letters, poems and photographs, sharing the funny, sad and amazing tales of their relationships with dogs. Readers will cry and laugh as they enjoy this homage to their best friends: dogs they’ve grown up with; dogs with incredible character; dogs who’ve changed – even saved – women’s lives.

I found both the stories of the dogs and the backgrounds of their owners equally interesting. There are sociologists, artists, poets, academics, teachers, refuge volunteers, writers, editors, politicians, journalists and heaps more. Wendy Parsons, Chin Wag
