Book Review of A Rare Breed of Love: The True Story of Baby and the Mission She Inspired to Help Dogs Everywhere

I was really excited to begin reading this book. I only have rescue pets in my home and so was hoping to read a heartwarming and uplifting story about another animal finding its forever home. What a disappointment! There was very little "story." More than half the book was photos with celebrities and information about the causes the celebrities support. The book also had many typos and was poorly written. I get it... you want to end factory farming and puppy mills. Repeating it on almost every page was a bit much.

I feel like the title of the book was misleading; I was expecting much more about Baby and not so much about other animals. Don't get me wrong; I think Jana Kohl is doing good work trying to end puppy mills and factory farming. This book isn't the way to do it.
