Gracie H VanDiverGracie Vandiver has rescued many animals, but one dog rescue in particular stood out enough to write a children's chapter book based on her experience. Basil's Quest, A Tale of Dogged Determination, is a story about resilience and the power of love. old from a rescue dog's perspective, Basil conveys that one's past need not decide one's future, but instead can shape it for the better. Vandiver and her husband are active in the rescue dog transporting community, helping homeless animals relocate to states where they have a better chance of being adopted. She shares her love of books as the steward of Gracie's Little Free Library (charter #83579 located in Nashville, Tennessee), providing free access to books through public neighborhood bookcases maintained by volunteers.
