CHRISTIAN AUTHOR AND ANIMAL EXPERT SHARES STORIES OF HOLOCAUST PETS: New Book of Heart-Warming, Heart-Wrenching Tales about Dogs and Cats that Families had to Leave Behind in WWII Europe
Perhaps it isn't surprising considering Susan Bulanda's vast experience with animals. She has trained and managed search-and-rescue dogs, worked as a certified animal behaviorist, authored seven animal-related books, is past vice president of the International Association of Animal Behavior Consultants, judged with the United Kennel Club, taught university courses in canine training, and is a pet-lover herself. Add to that her interest in Jewish and Christian history, and one can see how the question might arise in her mind: "When European Jews during World War II were torn by Nazis from their homes, what happened to the family pets?"
Ms. Bulanda used her connections to search for stories from Holocaust survivors still living, or from their relatives. These ten personal accounts are collected in the book, Faithful Friends: Holocaust Survivors' Stories of the Pets who Gave Them Comfort, Suffered Alongside Them & Waited for Their Return by Susan Bulanda (releasing September 2011 by Cladach Publishing).
Though countless stories have been told about the Holocaust, the fresh angle of these memoirs illuminate two major themes:
1. The strength and importance of the human-animal bond.
2. The spirit of hope (in both people and animals) that endures even in the darkest times.
Faithful Friends includes wartime family stories from Hungary, Poland, Belgium, Holland, Romania, France, and Yugoslavia. There is something here for readers interested in WWII, the Holocaust, dog and cat stories, and engaging personal memoirs.

An April release is planned for Judy Pex's new book, A People Tall and Smooth: Stories of Escape from Sudan to Israel.
The popular beach town of Eilat, at the southernmost tip of Israel, is visited daily by international tourists who want to visit the warm waters of the Red Sea. But when hundreds of tall, dark Africans show up to stay, curiosities are piqued. Where did they come from? Why are they in Eilat of all places? When a group of them enter the Shelter Hostel run by John & Judy Pex, these questions are answered, and some of their stories are recorded.
These are the very real stories of how and why five refugees escaped from genocide in South Sudan and Darfur, and made their way through Egypt and smuggled into Israel, the only country their Islamic government prohibits them from entering. They fled across the border with nothing but the clothes on their backs. No food. No money. No papers. No possessions. Just thankful to be alive.
The Foreword was written by Stuart Briscoe.
Quotes from a few of the endorsements we have received for A People Tall and Smooth:
"[Stories] of resilience, determination and the choice for freedom--at all cost." ~ Joan Hecht, author of The Journey of the Lost Boys
"[These] stories will challenge the church to be salt and light." ~ Corey Odden, CEO of The Voice of the Martyrs-Canada
"Judy Pex writes with a deep understanding not only of Israel and her refugees but of human nature and God's heart for all His children. Pex will move you with her words, her details, and the experiences of those with whom she has worked. She and her husband are living examples of God's arms that are open to everyone." ~ Eric Wilson, NY Times bestselling novelist
"The breadth and depth of the book is quite breathtaking.... Deserves a wide audience." ~ David Price, former Rector of Christ Church in Jerusalem
