' What's It All About ...? Alfy !' A book of poetry created by Elaine & Rod Remnant-Ashton has been launched this month, to raise funds for the care of the animals on Jollity Farm, a small shelter in Gerrans, Cornwall where Mary Alice and her husband Chris rescue displaced, unwanted and animals who were doomed for slaughter. Jollity Farm provides sanctuary for them, for the rest of their natural lives. The book is a collection of poetry and prose, written by friends of animals from around the world. Authors penned their thoughts on a wide variety of subjects concerned with animal welfare and rights, including contributions from actress Melita Morgan, Agent For Change, The Scary Guy, singer/songwriter Maria Daines, writers Mark David Hatwood, Frank. E. Bittinger and many more. Mary Alice said the book is dedicated to the memory of her beloved rescue dog Alfy, who passed away earlier this year just before his 18th Birthday. 'It's a testament to the united love and compassion people feel for animals, and I hope it will help to make people a little more aware of the plight of sentient beings in society today. I wanted this book to have a little something for all age groups and I'm very pleased to say, with the help of some wonderful talents and caring people, it is just that !' ' What's it all about...?

He is the only creature that inflicts pain for sport, knowing it to be pain. The fact that man knows right from wrong proves his intellectual superiority to the other creatures; but the fact that he can do wrong proves his moral inferiority to any creature that cannot." - Mark Twain -
