True stories of animal courage

Shirley Raye Redmond gathers 50 true accounts of animals whose actions became part of human history. The examples range from Roselle, a guide dog who helped her blind owner escape the collapsing World Trade Center on September 11, to Tommy, a rescue cat credited with dialing 9-1-1 during his owner’s medical emergencies, and Simon, a ship’s cat who supported crewmembers held hostage aboard their vessel. Together, the stories connect animal bravery with moments of danger, rescue, and companionship, while the book’s Christian framing presents the animals as part of God’s creation. At 160 pages, the collection offers individual tales that can be read as a family or explored one at a time.
