Heartwarming stories — Traer Scott 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.
Informative facts — Did you know donkeys’ stubbornness is a well-honed survival tactic? That Scottish Highland cattle are the oldest registered breed of cattle in the world? Scott’s captions combine detailed histories of the breeds with the personal sagas to create enchanting tributes to our four-legged (and winged) friends from the farm.

everyone should read this book Oh, these critters. They’re beautiful, unspoiled and soooo very worthy of our respect. Homo sapiens, open your selfish, self-centered eyes to see the charm of critters. They’re far superior to us. We should accept that fact and allow ourselves to learn from them.
Not just a book of animal photographs This is not just a book of animal photographs although the skills of multi-award winning photographer Traer Scott make it a compelling artistic achievement. Radiant also tells a story about gentle, intelligent and loving creatures who are the lucky ones. They are cared for in farm sanctuaries by people who nurtured them from sick, abused or unwanted animals to the stunning creatures who are described on each page. They range from the familiar to the exotic, but we learn something enticing…
Magnificent! Just an absolutely beautiful book! It shows these wonderful animals in their natural beauty and invites us to celebrate their lives. I sincerely hope that this compels people to look closely at these animals, who are so often relegated to the domain of consumption, and helps people rethink their choices– each animal has an individual story, personality, and presence of being that really shines through in these provocative photos.
