Wonderful Stories – Amazing Pets and Animals

By Dog Lover | December 30, 2009

Christina Jussaume is the Christian author of the following books: My Walk With Jesus (2007), Joseph’s Star of Eternal Promise (2008); and Spiritual Living Waters Flowing in Words (2008). She is an excellent author of Christian poetry and has received many accolades and praises regarding her poetry.  She is the inventor of the famous Christ-in-a-Rhyme poem and various other poetic forms. She is to be complimented for all her poetic efforts and inventions.

Any way you put it, abusing anyone is a downright horrible thing. The difference is: If a person is being abused, they have a way out. They can call the police, hire an attorney, talk to their friends and family, seek professional help to overcome emotional trauma, etc. On the other hand, what can an animal do? Can a dog call 911 while their owner kicks and punches them day in and day out? Can a cat jump in their car and speed away from the person who is hurting them? No. They have no way out, and are forced to suffer through their neglect hopelessly. Imagine if your pet was in another owner’s hands. Can you even begin to fathom how terrible it would be for them to be hit, kicked, screamed at, starved, or chained up on a daily basis? What if they were dropped off on the side of the highway- as many pets are- and left to die, just because their owner didn’t care?

So, you want to know how you can help? First, if you are a pet owner, never hit, kick, or physically harm your pet in any way shape or form. No matter how you put it, abuse is never acceptable. If situations arise where you find yourself in financial hardships, and are no longer able to provide proper care to your pet, take them to your nearest Humane, or “No-Kill” Animal Shelter. Organizations such as the Humane Society of the United States are devoted to helping all animals find permanent, loving homes. Extensive background checks are performed on all adoption applicants, so you can rest assured knowing that your pet will find a safe, new home.

This book is very pleasing to the eyes with the variety of pictures she has included. The pictures have a thousand words regarding the poems they go with. These pictures are very touching and bring a sense of pride to the pages. As always, her special friend Pat Simpson has performed marvelously for her in setting up the pages as her publisher.  

By researching animal abuse on websites like this, as well as many others on the internet, you can stay well informed on the subject. By being informed, you can also correctly inform other people. Spread the word any way you can! You could even start your own organization! Volunteering is another fantastic way to help animals. Local humane societies are always seeking volunteers to help feed their animals, clean out their kennels, and help out with adoption processes. Learn more by visiting their website or calling them.

This book is also a teaching tool. Reading about the Australian Kookaburra is a lesson in itself. I was under the impression this was a relative of the Kangaroo until I finally read the page and saw the picture. How amazing! Additionally, Denny the Dolphin is such fun to read about. Wait until you see Donna who is teasing Denny to take a leap with her. They are so fantastic and are attached to each other.   The variety of poetry forms used in this book is an education to the reader. I like how the Tanka form describes the hawk, and the Nonet form the eagle. The Quatrain form gives deep vision to The Doggy Tales, The Bunny Rabbits, Bear Family, Tiger’s Plight, The Flying Squirrel, and others. I also like the pictures used with each poem.  

Her articulation of the haiku and senryu poems is just amazing.   Her bifurcated string of these poems is excellent in describing animals and their relationships. The pictures of the Sly Skunk and Prairie Dog are neatly positioned with each page and corresponding poem.   This is certainly another wonderful publication by Christina in her series of book and poetic collection. She is certainly building a library for her readers. Having known Christina for many years, being familiar with her creative poetic style, and having read all four of her book, I can attest to the fact that she is an awesome poetess.
