Produktbeschreibung
Julie grew up surrounded by animals-mostly stuffed-treating beloved family pets as siblings. Not much changed as she aged, although she no longer rescues stuffed animals from garage sales. Dogs and cats helped Julie transition from one milestone to the next: puberty, marriage, motherhood. Animals wove themselves into much of Julie's existence in the most surprising ways. In this funny and compelling memoir, Julie's life story unfolds through her love of animals and how animals played key roles in significant life events. Something deeper is revealed about us within our connection to creatures, both wild and tame, real and fictional. Julie's experiences show us how animals can shape our perspective, give us the gift of empathy, and provide much needed comfort when no one else can.
Autorenporträt
Julie Ann is the author of two self-published memoirs-and understands why Prince and Madonna went through a phase of refusing to perform their first singles. A teacher of literature and writing at both college and high school levels, she squeezes in as much reading and writing as possible, then berates herself when she's lazy. She created Book Smart Pop-Up in 2023 in the hopes we all get a little bit smarter through books while avoiding algorithms on our phones. She lives in the Midwest with her ex-husband, their college-aged son, a dog the size of a pony, and a cat who in a past life was an engineer.
