A Great Book of Tales

My Patient With Tales is a great book, easy to read and veryenjoyable. Even if Dr. Pope was not my vet (he has been for 22 years), I would still recommend this book to everyone I know. I could not put it down until the last tale was told. This is the kind of book that can be enjoyed by everyone whether they have a pet or not.

Heartwarming

Dr. Robert Pope tells sometimes funny, sometimes sad, but always touching tales of his life as a Wisconsin veterinarian. He often ends his tales with a quote from Scripture and a lesson he learned or a realization. I enjoyed his wife's simple drawings. Anyone who loves animals or has pets should read this book. Through Dr. Pope's words, you too can learn some of the things that animals can teach us about life.

Wonderful Short Tales

This book is tales about the tails in the life of a vet in WI. The series of short stories are written so that one does picture the scene of the moment. Dr. Pope brings life to each of these moments in the mind of the reader while giving some Wisconsin philosophy to the reader. I would suggest this book as a book for a Father's Day gift, or a gift to yourself. The illustrations by Marjorie Pope, also bring smiles, especially the cow pictures.

funny & sad

I truely enjoyed reading this book. I could not put it down until I finished the last page. There are quite some charecters in here. Parts of it had me laughing and then a few stories did bring tears to my eyes. If you like animals and want to hear some good farm and pet stories I highly recommend read this book

The perfect bedtime book - stories that will make you smile

Dr. Pope's acccounts of life as a small town vet in Wisconsin are entertaining and enlightening. As a veterinarian, he must be a businessman, psychologist, theologian, and, most importantly, a friend to all his clients. The "tales" that arise from the different aspects of his practice are told honestly and thoughtfully, and make for great bedtime stories.
