STAY: LESSONS MY DOGS TAUGHT ME ABOUT LIFE, LOSS, AND GRACE

Book ID/图书代码： 13341019C00015

English Summary/英文概要： You’ll be enthralled by this story of a man and his lovable Labrador retriever, Hannah, and what their canine friendship can show us about life, grace, and long walks in the park.

Hannah was Dave’s best friend. He couldn’t imagine starting a day without her tail wagging an energetic greeting, her body wiggling with sheer gratitude when her food dish was filled, and her unbridled enthusiasm for tennis balls. (How she fit three tennis balls in her mouth at once he’ll never know.)

So when Dave first learned of Hannah’s cancer diagnosis, he decided to take whatever time he had left with Hannah to cherish the moments and capture his thoughts in a journal. As he wrote about his canine friend, he soon realized that Hannah was an able (and furry) mentor of faith, grace, kindness, and forgiveness. The lessons were invaluable: from being present to trusting the master. When Hannah lived well past the expected time frame, Dave started to see that the insights he was gaining were more than just journal entries about a family pet. Through Hannah’s antics, God was preparing Dave for life itself.

You won’t want to miss this heartwarming tale of a dog who knew how to live . . . and showed her owner how.

Chinese Summary/中文概要： 你会被这个关于一个男人和他的可爱的拉布拉多寻回狗狗汉娜的故事所吸引，以及他们的犬类友谊能告诉我们关于生活、优雅和在公园里散步的事情。

汉娜是戴夫最好的朋友。他无法想象，如果没有她那充满活力的问候，没有她那充满感激之情的身体摆动，没有她那对网球的无限热情，她会怎样开始新的一天。(她怎么能同时把三个网球塞进嘴里，他永远也不会知道。)

因此，当大卫第一次得知汉娜的癌症诊断结果时，他决定利用与汉娜在一起的所有时间来珍惜这些时刻，并在日记中记录下自己的想法。当他写到他的狗狗朋友时，他很快意识到汉娜是一个有能力的(和毛茸茸的)导师，教导他信仰、优雅、善良和宽恕。这些经验是无价的:从现在到相信主。当汉娜的寿命远远超过了预期的时间范围时，大卫开始意识到，他所获得的见解不仅仅是关于一只家庭宠物的日志记录。通过汉娜的滑稽动作，上帝在为大卫的生活做准备。

你不会想错过这个温暖的故事的狗知道如何生活…并教她的主人怎么做。（WYL）

Awards/获奖情况：大卫·伯切特写了一本非常棒的书。我不知道自己什么时候流过这么多眼泪，笑过这么多，感动过这么深。这不只是因为我是狗的爱好者(我是)，而是因为这本书是深刻的，清新的，圣经的，真实的。它“闻起来像耶稣!读一读，把它送给你认识的每一个人。他们必定起来称你有福。(史蒂夫·布朗，关键生活网络创始人)

当你正与乳腺癌作着激烈的斗争时，要注意人们或宠物，上帝通过他们给予你最温暖的鼓励。我的朋友乔尼·伯切特曾与癌症作斗争，但上帝通过她的拉布拉多寻回犬汉娜的爪印，赐予了她温暖、亲切的关怀。但这不是什么“狗狗故事”。这是一本充满勇气和温柔的书;勇敢,但温柔。我强烈推荐那些想要从主那里寻求新鲜和不寻常的接触的人留下!(乔尼·艾瑞克森·塔达,乔尼和朋友的国际残疾人中心创始人)

你可以猜猜我感兴趣的书有多少。但大卫·伯切特写了一篇令人难以置信的文章，描述了我们一直试图向你们展示的上帝的恩典、他惊人的爱，以及当人类发现他把他们重塑成什么样时，生活是什么感觉，即使是在他们最糟糕的日子里。书页闻起来像新割的草坪。我要让我的主人读这个!(巴里·林奇，约翰·林奇的金毛猎犬)

Dave Burchett has written a truly wonderful book. I don’t know when I’ve shed so many tears, laughed so much, and been moved as deeply. It’s not just because I’m a lover of dogs (I am), but because this book is profound, refreshing, biblical, and true. It “smells like Jesus!” Read it and give it to everyone you know. They will rise up and call you blessed. (Steve Brown, Founder of Key Life Network)

When you’re in a fierce battle against breast cancer, be on the lookout for people―or pets―through whom God delivers His most heartwarming encouragement. My friend Joni Burchett was in the cancer battle for her life, but God blessed her with His warm, personal touch through the pawprints of her Labrador retriever, Hannah. But this isn’t any “dog story.” This is a book filled with courage, yet tenderness; bravery, yet gentleness. I highly recommend Stay to anyone who is looking for a fresh and unusual touch from the Lord! (Joni Eareckson Tada, Founder of Joni and Friends International Disability Center)

You can count on one opposable thumb how many books hold my interest. But Dave Burchett has written an incredible piece that describes what we’ve been trying to model to you all about God’s grace, His astonishing love, and what life feels like when humans discover who He’s remade them to be, even on their worst day. And the pages smell like a freshly cut lawn. I gotta get my master to read this! (Bali Lynch, John Lynch’s golden retriever)
