A must-have book for animal lovers! From renowned ethologist and animal advocate Marc Bekoff and award-winning young-adult author Jeff Campbell comes a powerful and visually stunning exploration of animal emotions-and why they matter. With a foreword by Dr. Jane Goodall.

Love in Their Hearts invites young and adult readers alike into the rich inner lives of animals, from dogs to dolphins, octopuses to orangutans, and bees to bears. Through moving, surprising, and often joyful true stories, the authors explore the widespread evidence of empathy, playfulness, curiosity, grief, anger, and love across the animal kingdom-challenging readers to rethink what they thought they knew about nonhuman beings.

Written for young adults but accessible and compelling for all ages, this inspiring volume blends cutting-edge research, firsthand accounts from leading scientists, and a stirring call to compassionate action. A foreword by Dr. Jane Goodall celebrates the book's message of hope, responsibility, and connection.

Also setting this book apart is its breathtaking wildlife photography, much of it by internationally acclaimed photographer Thomas D. Mangelsen. Featured throughout, these enthralling, intimate portraits bring readers inside the passionate hearts of our fellow animals.

Both eye-opening and soul-expanding, Love in Their Hearts is an essential read for animal lovers, nature enthusiasts, students, educators, and anyone who believes compassion can change the world.
