If Only They Could Talk: The Miracles of Spring Farm

i LOVED this book. given that i have been to this farm and witnessed alot of these things for myself, i can attest to the truth and honesty at spring farm cares. i have met bonnie, dawn and lots of the animals mentioned in this book. its great to read a book in which you know everyone!! these 2 woman and all the people, animals and spirits there are doing something that is AMAZING and BEAUTIFUL. while living on another farm (the o'connor farm in litchfield, ny) where i rented my apartment, my landlord & landlady (jim & roberta o'connor) gave as much hay as they had to spring farm after their fire. i have also donated with glee and will continue to do so. it is a hard & extremely costly, but loving 'job' to take care of a farm this size, but to them it is NOT like work at all. it is like a natural way of life for them. the strength, love and mystery that grows there is truly a miracle. i have sent friends to dawn for readings to find lost animals. at first i did it just to see what would happen because i knew dawn knew absolutely NOTHING about the pet or owner before contacting dawn. each time, she directly them to the lost pet - not always living since telepathy can be read in the living as well as the dead - but in all cases, dawn provided closure to these pets and pet owners. if not for bonnie & dawn, this beautiful place would not exist. i have seen it grow from the beginning. although i have moved out of that area now, i am always following their newsletters and website. they have a gorgeous sanctuary. countless miracles occur and continue to occur there all the time. if i could give it 10 stars, i would gladly do so :))

Animal lovers everywhere will enjoy this poignant story of two woman and how they discover (quite by accident) the amazing world of animal communication through telepathy. The evolution of their rescue ranch, Spring Farm CARES is detailed, with all the hurdles and miracles along the way. A must read for all who KNOW our animals speak to us and understand what we say to them, as well as a great persuader for those who might be skeptical. Spiritually touching in ways you can't imagine.

This book is indeed nearly impossible to put down. The style of writing is simple and straight from the heart; the stories of struggles and triumphs, something we can all relate to. And anyone who has ever had an animal friend they have loved dearly will have little trouble accepting the fact that they can truly communicate when we simply learn to Listen. But what is most important, in my opinion, is the power this book has to open our hearts and minds to a world of inspiration and possibility when we tune into our inherant interconnectedness and allow ourselves to follow that winding journey off the beaten path by following our hearts - - Miracles happen!

I could not put the book down! After having attended the workshops and gone back to Spring Farm over the years it is nice to have the whole story of how it came into existance. The place is pure magic! If you are looking for a book of triumph over adversity for both animals and humans, this is it. And yes, the animals and humans can communicate as indicated in the book. It is a wonderful book and I look forward to the next chapter of this amazing place.

Couldn't put this book down. It's a great story about real people in Upstate New York, and how their animal rescue operation came to be. I've been to Spring Farm for a workshop, and I can tell you that it is truly a special place. Thanks to Bonnie and Dawn for sharing. If you're interested in animals, you'll love this book.
