Understanding Animals: An Inspirational Collection of 30 Short Stories (Or a Short Non-Fiction Novel)

An Inspirational Collection of 30 Short Stories (or a short non-fiction novel) Written & Illustrated by Marilyn Zapp. UNDERSTANDING ANIMALS is the second installment of an autobiographical trilogy revealing the long, unique and unorthodox life of artist, Marilyn Zapp (“M. Zapp”). She explains: I write a eulogy of many animals who taught me much wisdom and understanding. This journal evolved surprising me with an unexpected self-discovery, illumination or epiphany. I illustrated this piece because “a picture is worth a thousand words.” The first book, THE FAMILY SERIES, depicts a mother's heart and records the art work (of the many prints) circulated worldwide, while raising three children who inspired them. The third concluding autobiographical novel now in process, ROOM FOR A ROOMMATE, insists that we have a spiritual, mental and physical connection to all those good and bad people who were in our lives. It is illustrated with the paintings executed during each interrelationship throughout this journey. - - UNDERSTANDING ANIMALS Written & Illustrated by Marilyn Zapp. Prepared for Publication by Joshua Free Trade Paperback First Edition made possible by a grant from: The Puffin Foundation Ltd. - - To contact Marilyn Zapp, email: mjzapp2004@yahoo.com (re: subject “books”)
