Flamingo
A novel of love, homelessness, and learning to be fearless In the garden, there were three flamingos. Not real flamingos, but real emblems, real gateways to a time when life was impossibly good. They were mascots, symbols of hope. Something for a boy to confide in. First, there were the flamingos. And then there were two families. Sherry and Leslie and their daughters, Rae and Pauline - and Eve and her son Daniel. Sherry loves her husband, Leslie. She also loves Eve. It couldn't have been a happier summer. But then Eve left and everything went grey. Now Daniel is all grown-up and broken. And when he turns up at Sherry's door, it's almost as if they've all come home again. But there's still one missing. Where is Eve? And what, exactly, is her story? FLAMINGO is a novel about the power of love, welcome and acceptance. It's a celebration of kindness, of tenderness. Set in 2018 and the 80s, it's a song for the broken-hearted and the big-hearted, and is, ultimately, a novel grown from gratitude, and a book full of wild hope.

Puppy Possibilities
Puppy Possibilities guides you and your puppy along the path of building a life-long relationship by encouraging you to teach your pup, rather than command obedience of him. The schooling of the pup is presented in a simple, straightforward manner, engaging you to make the most of your puppy adventure, and have some fun along the way. My approach to training offers the pup every opportunity to succeed in his efforts to please you and your family. Each training session is given life through the use of 200 color photographs and illustrations. My canine cast of puppies brings their unique personalities to every game, trick, or training technique. I am honored to have the foreword written by author Rachel Page Elliott. As the puppy's advocate, it is my goal to educate the general public in a user-friendly fashion. This enables the family to actually have the pet they always dreamed of, rather than give up, blame the pup, and ship it off to rescue or the local pound.
From Hoofbeats to Dogsteps
Born to a loving and educated New England family, Rachel Page Elliott, known to all as Pagey, was encouraged to develop her interests and talents wherever they would lead her. And lead her they did, to a life-long fascination with animals, first to horses, then to dogs. Each passion created adventures and opportunities that make her life story so fascinating. With a growing family and a farm in the country, Pagey bred and competed in a wide range of dog sports with her "Featherquest" Golden Retrievers. Her interests led her to the scientific study of canine structure and movement and ground-shaking research that changed, and is still changing, widely-held beliefs about how dogs move. Curl up with this reminiscence of the life of a woman ahead of her time in her independence and passionate study of her interests and be inspired to follow your own instincts to live life more fully!
