Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for an ARC.
A really sobering and almost difficult read, Letters From Animals is a plea to stop animal cruelty around the world. Either by being more conscious of your impact on the world (animal testing/cruelty free companies, plastic pollution) or advocating for these voiceless animals.
Beautiful watercolor artwork does its bit to make the cruelty more palatable (and there's nothing extremely gory on the page) while emphasizing the fear and "humanity" of the animals. (The statistics on greyhounds deaths were really awful.) The pages tend to be a little wordy and info-heavy, but it was never a light read.
