This story is about the animal that started Ralph Helfer's illustrious career as Hollywood's top animal trainer for more than 30 years.

Awards

Reviews

"Extraordinary ... Beautifully expresses a simple philosophy so many have trouble following: respect for all living creatures, given and returned." -- Kirkus Reviews
