Here is what others had to say:

"Paul is a natural-born storyteller. His zest for life leaps off the page, and reminds us that God has created a beautiful, fascinating, rich life to be lived in Him, and for His glory. I encourage you to sit back, enjoy, and be reminded of the diversity of God's creation, and the privilege we have to be adventurers in His Kingdom!"

--Karen Hurlburt, Executive Pastor, The Peoples Church, Toronto, Canada

"I never get tired of stories of people seeing God at work in creation--especially when that creation includes our animal friends. In God, Pandas, and a Stethoscope, Paul Schuster shares stories and insights that not only make us laugh (hard!) and think, but they help us appreciate and understand our fellow creatures and the amazing God who made us all. A must-read for any animal lover."

--Caryn Rivadeneira, author of Saints of Feather and Fang

"As I read, God, Pandas, and a Stethoscope, I found myself sharing both the funny stories and the meaningful devotionals with those around me. If you love animals and enjoy well-told stories written by people who integrate their faith and the work of their hands, then I highly recommend this book to young and old alike."

--Peter Quesenberry DVM, author of Where There Is No Animal Doctor
