Summary

** "True Stories about Dogs and Cats" by Eliza Lee Cabot Follen relays heartwarming animal stories, offering moral guidance through tales of dogs and cats. Set in what seems like the early-to-mid-1800s, the book uses sweet stories to show how smart, loyal, and sensitive these animals are, teaching people to be nice to all animals. The book shares different nice stories about our furry friends—often told as evening stories between a mom and her two boys. These include stories of a smart dog saving his owner and a cat showing love in surprising ways. These stories want to make you feel good, but also want to teach important lessons about being kind, loving, and understanding towards animals. The book repeats the idea that animals, just like people, can feel connected to each other and be good, encouraging readers, especially young ones, to treat them with care and love. **

In 1828, she married Prof. Charles Follen, who died on board the Lexington in 1840. During her married life, she published a variety of popular and useful books, all of which were characterized by her Christian piety.

Holding an interest in the religious instruction of the young, she edited, in 1829, the Christian Teacher's Manual, and, from 1843 to 1850, the Child's Friend. She died in Brookline, Massachusetts in 1860.
