Marla Diana R Wright

"Marla" is a realistic, sensitive, tragic, yet humanely told life story of a Brown Swiss dairy cow with appreciation and recognition of the relationship between farmer/rancher and the animals in their care. Though some liberties have been necessarily taken, the story is told from the cow's perceptive much like Anna Sewell's story of "Black Beauty" a horse--loved, then abused and later rescued and Richard Adams' portrayal of the journey of a colony of rabbits in "Watership Down". Those classics sold over 500,000 copies. Years later, new generations, still buy and read these books. Whether human or animal, one's surroundings and circumstances effect development, personality, soul, and heart. It is the authors' hope that enlightenment regarding cows may spark wisdom and nurture kindness toward all creatures.
