      Synopsis

      An Old English Sheepdog starts out his life as the runt of the litter at a puppy mill in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. Abused, neglected, and left to die, Henley is finally rescued by a shelter worker and then adopted into a loving home. Written in the dog's voice it brings you closer to the situation from a perspective that needs to be heard. Henley eventually relinquishes his title as "top dog" when he welcomes not one, but five rescued cats into his life. The interaction between canine and felines is touching, humorous, and captivating.

      This is a story of kindness, patience, love, respect, and understanding for lovers of all creatures great and small.

      Publishers note: Part of the proceeds from this book benefits three animal rescue organizations.

      November 12, 2009: I have read My Name is Henley to my 5th grade students. They cannot stop talking about Henley, Mandy, Mookie, Ned, Rose and Cynthia. This book has captivated their attention and inspired them in their own writing. We also have Everybody Loves Mookie in the classroom which is just as popular. We have laughed out loud and even shed a few tears. We love Judith Kristen and her 4-legged family members. Buy this book and share it with children and adults alike.

      I Also Recommend: Everybody Loves Mookie, Mookie And The Rescued Cat, Mookie And The Christmas Tree.

      August 07, 2009: This book not only made better readers out of my children,(they've all read it at least a dozen times) but better writers (of their own little animal stories) and best of all they now truly understand the love that animals have for us, the devotion, if we just think outside of ourselves and give our animal friends a chance. Henley is an eye opener and a heart breaker and a funny, joy-filled and triumphant dog who I hope lives to be 20 years old.

      I hope we can meet him one day. All of us really loved and appreciated the story.It is a must read for everyone everywhere.
