Stories that exist because impossible-to-explain coincidences change everything. Except in real life, not all of them have conventional, happily-ever-after endings. When Harry Met Minnie is that kind of fairy tale, with the vibrant, romantic New York City backdrop of its namesake, the movie When Harry Met Sally, and the bittersweet wisdom of Tuesdays with Morrie. There's a special camaraderie among early-morning dog walkers. Gathering at dog runs in the park, or strolling through the farmer's market at Union Square before the bustling crowd appears, fellow pet owners become familiar--as do the personalities of their beloved animals. In this special space and time, a chance encounter with an old acquaintance changed Martha Teichner's world. As fate would have it, her friend knew someone who was dying of cancer, from exposure to toxins after 9/11,and desperate to find a home for her dog, Harry. He was a Bull Terrier--the same breed as Martha's dear Minnie. Would Martha consider giving Harry a safe, loving new home? In short order, boy dog meets girl dog, the fairy tale part of this story. But there is so much more to this book. After Martha agrees to meet Harry and his owner Carol, what begins as a transaction involving a dog becomes a deep and meaningful friendship between two women with complicated lives and a love of Bull Terriers in common. Through the heartbreak and grief of Carol's illness, the bond that develops changed Martha's life, Carol's life, Minnie's life, Harry's life. As it changed Carol's death as well. In this rich and touching narrative, Martha considers the ways our stories are shaped by the people we meet, and the profound love we can find by opening our hearts to unexpected encounters"--Provided by publisher.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Copy Status   Hilo Public Library Large Type LT 636.70092 Teichner Te   Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kailua-Kona Public Library Large Type LT 636.70092 Teichner Te   Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kihei Public Library Large Type LT 636.70092 Teicher Te   Checked In Add Copy to MyList Library For The Blind and Print Disabled Large Type LT 636.70092 Teichner Te   Checked In Add Copy to MyList Makawao Public Library Large Type LT 636.70092 Teichner Te Traveling Collection (07/2023) Checked In Add Copy to MyList Thelma Parker Memorial P/S Library Large Type LT 636.70092 Teichner Te   Checked In Add Copy to MyList
