Twisty and True Tails of a Shelter Dog Matchmaker is a work of non-fiction in the spiritual, emotional writing, and inspirational subgenres. It is suitable for the general adult reading audience. Penned by author Jean M. Alfieri, this charming collection contains many heartwarming stories of displaced dogs finding their way to happiness. The book serves as a delightful ode to the spiritual and life lessons that dogs offer. Alfieri's work at the Humane Society in Colorado Springs becomes a backdrop for tales of love, loss, and loyalty. The narrative, sprinkled with thoughtful and eloquent quotes, well-chosen scripture excerpts, and delightful insights, captures the essence of the special bond between humans and their furry companions.
Author Jean M. Alfieri knows how to take her readers on an emotional journey, navigating through the struggles, delights, and blessings of stewardship over these canine souls. Alfieri's naturalistic storytelling is infused with a genuine passion for the well-being of these animals, creating a touching narrative that resonates with any dog lover but is also sure to keep them grounded in the important spiritual and moral messages that lie behind the text. The book not only celebrates the happiness of adoption but also reflects on the profound impact these animals have on our lives and how we can be reminded of so much joy, grace, and providence through our experiences connecting with animals. Overall, I would not hesitate to recommend Twisty and True Tails of a Shelter Dog Matchmaker as a unique work of non-fiction unlike anything I’ve ever read, which is just brimming with delight from cover to cover.
