Editorial Review
Tina's Rescue is a work that combines children's narrative with a highly relevant social message. Its strength lies in the authenticity of the story, inspired by a real case at the Gaia Sanctuary, which gives it added documentary and emotional value.

It is a recommended book for those looking for stories that not only entertain, but also sow awareness and respect for nature and animals.
