  1. Rated 5 out of 5

    Karen Olson – June 14, 2022

    Helping children to become aware of the plight of homeless animals is a subject I feel is important to address. I love that the author added the lesser known aspect of pilots who transport these animals to shelters. “Halfway Home” is a short story but the message of how poor Zeke feels as he’s sitting at the shelter while the other dogs are adopted will be clear to young kids. The illustrations further portray Zeke’s feelings of sadness, loneliness and then happiness and love.

    What a beautiful book with so much heart! I love how clearly Erin’s passion for helping some of the most vulnerable among us comes through on every page. This book would make a fabulous addition to any shelf!

    Holly DiBella McCarthy – June 16, 2022

    Engaging rescue story about Zeke (and he is adorable!) and a dedicated group of animal rescue flight services volunteers. Children will love this story about hope and never giving up, with it’s fun writing (Footsteps sounded STEP! STOMP! SQUEAK!) and captivating illustrations!

    I’m so glad we got this book. It’s more adorable and inspirational each time we read it. Everyone can relate to Zeke and feeling halfway home. Such a wonderful tale of hope and love. My family loves aviation, planes and dogs so this book it a total winner at our house.
    Thanks Zeke! ❤️

    Jessica Couch – June 28, 2022

    I ordered this book for my daughter who loves dogs more than anything. We have a neighbor who heads a local rescue and they’ve become close. This book creates a narrative for her to realize how possible and how far your heart and your compassion can take you! We love it! Well written, wonderful storyline and cool that air rescue was involved as we are an aviation family! Great book, ordered two in order to donate one to our elementary school. And may I just add, I LOVE Maeve’s tattoos! ❤️

    A book to remind us that there is always HOPE. For Zeke after many rejections – a forever home arrives.

    As a retired teacher a must have book for the classroom. Hope and love always prevail. Wonderful vibrant illustrations.

    What an amazing book! My 8 year old son loves dogs and recently started to learn about animal rescue. We love that this book is a true story and takes rescue a step further focusing on air rescue and the hard work the volunteers do. We fell in love with Zeke immediately and routed for him to find his forever home. Highly recommend this adorable read!

    How can you not love Zekie Bubbles?! I was rooting for him with every page that he would find his perfect forever home. I bought this for my son who is obsessed with dogs and the aviation additions was an added bonus for both of us. We ended up learning more about animal rescues from this book which has sparked many great conversations and google searches! It is really well written, the illustrations are fantastic and it’s fun and sweet. I would highly recommend this heartwarming story!
