Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leya came home in Kindergarten and decided she too was a vegetarian. As a food scientist and nutritionist, I knew the most important thing was to make sure she got the proper nutrients in her diet. Many of the girls at her school have decided to be vegetarians, but sometimes that turns out to be a diet too high in carbohydrates (also known as pizzaterians or donutarians) and lacking in iron, essential amino acids, and other nutrients. Some of the moms had no idea how to make sure their children had a proper, healthy diet, or even how to cook for their children to keep it interesting! Leya and I decided maybe we could share some of our favorite recipes with our friends. That grew into the idea of a cookbook! I'm incredibly proud of her for her hard work and dedication! We hope you enjoy some of our personal family favorites! Denise Glazer, Mom

The bond they shared was special - he was her companion through the best and worst of it all. So when the inevitable happened - the realization he was dying at 15 years of age and she would have to face the painful and difficult decision of helping to let him go, their relationship changed, causing Deborah to learn some invaluable lessons from him about life, love, grieving, and letting go. Told by Mr. Jazz himself, an ordinary cat by his own admission, Purr Prints of the Heart is a touching meow-memoir that will strike a chord with anyone whose heart carries paw-prints of love as he shares the story of his life from kitten hood to his final days on earth in the physical sense. Cleverly written in cat likeness with incredible insight, candor, charm, wisdom, and humor, Mr. Jazz takes the reader on a journey that is like a salve in book form to offer comfort to all who have had to deal with (or will have to deal with), the inevitable loss of a beloved pet. Replete with memorable moments of anticipation, outbursts of laughter, sighs of relief, sheer joy, and throes of grief, Mr. Jazz, carries a conversation with readers, putting them in real-life situations they can easily relate to and empathize with - from his days as a kitten that nobody wanted, to finally being adopted into a loving human and animal filled family that had its share of ups and downs, to his final months whereby his health was declining and he had to deal with things like frequent visits to the vet, being force fed food, resentment issues, litter issues, and the finality of coming to terms with the fact he was dying and needing to convince his beloved humans to let him go . The ending is a welcoming upturn, a refreshing reminder of the celebration of life and the indelible purr prints cats leave on our hearts and includes an invaluable "Coping With Pet Loss" section to help readers on all levels - emotionally, mentally, spiritually, and even physically to empower themselves with ways to positively honor the journey of the pet lost as well as ways to find the strength to heal and mend a broken heart.
