The triumph of hope over death

"Boomerang- a Miracle Trilogy details the passage of grief, recovery and hope during the brief life and death of her beloved Boomerang, a talented and extraordinary Boston Terrier. The story is a melange of fact and fable, showing that love can triumph over death and that fantasy can be a healing medium. When animal spirits and humans freely interact, the result is a charming fable of birth, rebirth and transformation of one's soul.This is a hopeful book, full of wisdom about living, loving and dying. Set against the recent events of the beginning of this millenium, Grandpa Gem and Boomerang are sweet missionaries in a world fraught with danger and fear. They are the messangers of love and kindness, embracing a philosophy that would make the world a far better place.Writing can be an extraordinary medium for recovery rom grief. In writing "Boomerang- a Miracle Trilogy," Mrs. Millman has found her voice and bared her soul. Love- and writing- can indeed conquer all.

A Lovely Book

Boomerang is a well written, gentle and wise book that explores on many levels the power and majesty of love. The book, By Arlene Millman, is compelling in two related yet independent ways. First it is a beautiful story about the love, loss and connection shared between an owner and her dog. Second, Boomerang serves as a spiritual primer, by educating the reader about the transcendent love that lies underneath and around all relationship. Both aspects of the book are well done and well suited for people both young and old.

A wonderful gift - Inspiring, imaginative, entertaining

Both as a writer and a book editor, I compare a book with the author'spreface to see if I agree that an author has accomplished what he or sheset out to do. In the preface of Arlene Millman's charming book, shestates that her purpose is to "inspire, inform, and entertain." She hasaccomplished her goal imaginatively and admirably, with the help of aremarkable Boston Terrier.There is a lot about "Boomerang" that will have a familiar ring to thoseof us who love and are loved unconditionally by animals. There is also alot to provoke thought and inspire hope.In a too human world where some religions try to convince us thatanimals do not have souls -- when we who know and love animals and thelove and generosity of our Creator know otherwise (because we only needto look into their eyes to see their souls), "Boomerang - A MiracleTrilogy," is smile-provoking, an "I told you so," a candle in thedarkness, and a message of love and hope. Even its backcover illustration provides an appropriate conclusion:"Through Love, all things are possible."

Boomerang-an affirmation of life

A story about a Boston Terrier that will inspire people of all ages. Well written and boasting love, affection, sympathy and postive vibes, Ms. Millman suceeds in entertaining as well as providing a positive message to any reader of this book. Highly recommended for any dog or animal lover, also well recommended for anyone who wants to feel good after a good read. This book is appropriate for children of all ages as well.

A remarkable dog with an enchanting snuggle up story

I found the book Boomerang - A miracle Triology to be a very touching personal memior that deals with the attachment and loss of a beloved canine family member through a warm and enchanting story of unconditional love, hope and family values. Boomerang is a truly warm, comforting, feel good book with a positive and uplifting after taste. I would recommend it for all adults, not just boston terrier fanciers and for children who have achieved a fifth or sixth grade reading comprehension.
