If you have, or had, a pet that is more like an amazing family member, you will want to read Tali's tale."-Pagan Culture"Told from the viewpoint of an Australian Shepherd used to a life of luxury,Show Dog Sings the Bluesis a lighthearted romp through a day of mistaken identity. There's action, adventure, laughter, and even a few tears as O'Branagan spins her tale of the power of love and coping with what life sometimes throws  us." -Shadow Dance Aussies"This is not a cheesy story. It's not a children's tale where the characters just happen to be animals. Tali explores the world exactly the way a dog would. The decisions she makes are based on instinct, on training, and on her understanding of her purpose as a dog. She demonstrates the importance animals have in the human world, the healing power they possess when we need it most." - Literary Endeavors"Writing from the perspective of an animal is a challenge not many writers are able to conquer effectively, but O'Branagan manages to create a strong, memorable character in Talisman. Show Dog Sings The Blues surprised me in many ways. It was all at once humorous, hopeful, and suspenseful. I found myself going back and reading parts of it over again just to relive certain moments in the story." - Cedes of Change
