When Animals Speak: Advanced Interspecies Communication

Rating:
Summary: How Sad
Review: If you think you can learn anything valuable from a person who believes they were once a Yetti (Big Foot) in a previous life, who communicates with faeires, and can control the elements, then spend your money. You won't be disappointed. This woman is totally off her rocker. She believes she communicated with a horse with an evil spirit, the spirit left the horse after she spoke with it, and then caused planetary changes and the demise of Communism. HUH? The woman is totally out of touch with nature, her spiritual side, and most importantly herself. Go back to the basics Penelope. Learn to love the animals again for who they are. Do not impose on them your own distorted beliefs.

Summary: For those with open hearts
Review: This is an excellent book for readers who already accept telepathic animal communication as reality. As the subtitle states, this is ADVANCED Interspecies Communication. Begin with wonderful books such as Patty Summers' Talking With the Animals and Arthur Meyers' Communicating With Animals and practice with your animal companions before tackling the concepts presented here. As I continue to learn and improve my own telepathic connection, I reread sections of When Animals Speak and more and more of Penelope's statements that seemed beyond belief are now fitting like puzzle pieces into my newly-expanded worldview. I especially appreciate Penelope's candor as she describes being torn between providing the safe environment she'd like for her animals or granting them the autonomy for which they long. And I'm grateful for the wise words and lessons from the animal teachers which Penelope shares with the rest of us.

Summary: very entertaining
Review: What a hoot! This book is fabulous and very entertaining, well worth the money. I found it in a bookstore and could not put it down. It will provide you with plenty of hilarious anecdotes and ridiculous stories to amuse your friends. Anyone who does not like this book probably was taking it too seriously, or didn't fully realize what they would get from a book on "interspecies telepathic communication." High ratings for imagination and camp value, new age to the hilt, and absolutely, completely, totally out there. And, yes, as a previous reviewer alluded to, she has her own way of relating to and caring for animals - definitely not the way I would treat an animal in my care. I give it a 5 star rating over all.
