A Tale of Unconditional Love

About Us

A story that teaches young minds the beauty of rescue and the power of compassion

About Author

Annette Lesh McGraw

From a young age, Annette has had a love for animals. Though she never quite knew it, she also had a passion for storytelling. This affection blossomed as she took a brief career change as a preschool teacher for 3-year-old inquiring minds.  As she taught children, Annette always believed in the magic and power of words; knowing they had the power to stir up hope, as she witnessed as young minds were being developed.

Annette left teaching preschool; fate would have it that she would become a paralegal for her local government, bringing hope to children needing a forever home.  When Annette learned that a struggling little bichon dog needed help because she was retired, she immediately brought her into their home.

Annette wanted to tell Harlei’s story from a dog’s view and help educate as to adoption of throw away dogs; wherever they may be; and hopefully a desire to rescue, love and extend grace to those needing help. 

Join her, as she promises to nurture the seeds of compassion for the four-legged companions that want to offer us unconditional love.
