Sooner was only nine...with a runny nose, and raggedy clothes, and a harsh, brutal childhood spent with an embittered, bootlegging, Bible quoting old woman. Sooner's only warmth and companionship came from her woodland animal friends, a redwing blackbird and a little chipmunk.
But then Sooner bgan a new life with Mac, a warm, giving veterinarian, and his wife Elizabeth --who was unable to have any children...and feared that she couldnt love at all.
This is the heartwarming story of these three human beings, who together found a new fullfillment in the act of giving...and a new understanding of what it is to love.

Sooner was only 9..... with a runny nose, & raggedy clothes, & a harsh, brutal childhood spent with an enbittered, bootlegging, Bible-quoting old woman. Sooner's only warmth & companionship came from her woodland animal friends, a rewing blackbird & a little chipmunk. But then Sooner began a new life with Mac, a warm, giving veterinarian, & his wife Liz - who was unable to have any children.... & feared that she couldn't love at all. This book is about 3 people, who together found a new fulfillment in the act of giving... & a new understanding of what it is to love.

We've had this book for a long time. The pages are intact and the book is readable, but the book has some moderate signs of age.
