Traer Scott – författare

Gregarious or shy, curious or placid, playful or retiring, all the animals in Traer Scott’s newest collection have one thing in common: a sparkling personality! This whimsical, soulful, and personal photo collection focuses on the lives of the farm animals we often take for granted. Scott introduces us to barnyard animals both familiar and lesser known, from cows, pigs, sheep, and chickens to Dolly the wooly llama, Bianca the Sicilian miniature donkey, Percy the Indian peafowl, and Justice the yak. Some of the animals are kept as pets; others are denizens of farm sanctuaries that Scott has visited. She shares her anecdotes about a Texas longhorn steer whose best friends are a trio of goats, a turkey who likes to snack on grapes and watermelon, and many others. Lively captions provide information on each breed, to round out this enchanting tribute to our four-legged (and winged) friends from the farm.

The perfect gift for cat lovers everywhere, Rescue Cats will delight and inspire with its collection of full-color, close-up portraits of cats and their stories of adoption, from the award-winning author of Finding Home and Forever Home. Celebrated animal photographer Traer Scott invites readers on a heartwarming journey into the lives of courageous rescue cats and kittens, captured in evocative images and remarkable stories. In these pages, you’ll meet: Forrest, a majestic Maine Coon who was born with an impairment and found on the street as a twelve-week-old stray. After finding the perfect home, he now goes kayaking and camping with his family. Linus, once a severely malnourished kitten weighing less than one ounce and given no chance of survival. After months of careful foster care, he grew to be a healthy and beloved pet. A litter of kittens, shown week by week, revealing how quickly they grow and change. And twenty more rescue cats whose inspiring stories of survival and resilience offer an irresistible celebration of compassion and second chances. Beautifully illustrated and engagingly written, Rescue Cats pays tribute to these amazing felines who have undergone remarkable transformations and found their forever homes while conveying the profound impact of rescue and adoption. For cat lovers, photography enthusiasts, and advocates for animal welfare, this joyful cat book is a poignant reminder that every rescue is a chapter in a larger story of compassion and redemption.
