Animals That Have Touched My Life

Animals That Have Touched My Life is a delightful story that Jeanne Sheeder Steele tells in her own words of pets and wild animals that she's come to know and love over 89 years. From the story of how her grandfather's field horse would pick up six-year old Jeanne by her overall straps when he didn't want to be ridden and dangle her until someone came to her rescue, to the times the local coal miners would call upon Jeanne and her horse, Tony, to round up mining mules that escaped from their paddock, to the black snake that for several years greeted Jeanne every time she went to the barn by rubbing against the cuff of her pants, to the dozens of cats, dogs, horses and menagerie of wild animals: skunks, chipmunks, rabbits, birds, ladybugs, chickens and spiders who found comfort in Jeanne's company. Jeanne Sheeder Steele was an animal whisperer long before the phrase became popular. She connects with animals in a way few others do. Read Jeanne's stories of how animals impacted her life from before the Great Depression, during World War II, with her husband of 42 years, her children, her neighbors and friends. You'll laugh, cry and be glad you've come to know this unusual and intriguing woman.
