Author: Alan Rabinowitz

Website

This is a powerful, true story about a boy who stutters, but not when he is with animals; with animals he speaks beautifully. When he grows older, he learns to speak without stuttering; yet, his love of animals never leaves and he decides to use his voice to speak for them. When, on his first trip to the jungle, he rediscovers his favorite animal as a youth – the jaguar – he gives an impassioned speech to protect them. A brilliant story about the power we have to save what we love and find who we are.
