Link Ups for "From Baghdad, With Love"

http://www.amazon.com/Baghdad-Love-Marine-Named-Lava/dp/1592289800

    Anyone looking to buy this book, which i highly recommend, would use this site to order a copy online.  If you like action mixed with cute puppies then this is a book for you.

    This is possibly the best site out there for this book!  It is an official video of the book that contains footage of Kopelman and Lava interacting in the United States after returning from war.  Watch this Mrs. Hayes, it's worth it.

    You can even follow this book and it's readers on facebook.  This is really cool because i cheked it out and it actually has people on there from Iraq that commented in Iraqi but I obviously can't read it.

    This site gives a pretty detailed summary of the book that is actually pretty accurate.  If you need a review of this book, then this site is perfect.

    An actual article was posted on this book that was written based entirely on true events and this site provides the whole thing.

    This site is about the APDT(Association of Pet Dog Trainers) which devoted a section of their site to Mr. Kopelman.  This was all because he saved Lava and brought him to the United States.

    I really like this site because it shows the whole symbol of the Lava Dogs marines team and it shows the times in military time of Afghanistan, Iraq, and Hawaii (which is where they are all from).

    This site deals with the Baghdad Zoo that one of the doctors that helped Lava was working at.  She helped many other animals reach safety during operation Iraqi Freedom.

I love this site because it has information on Camp Fallujah which was the actual army base that Kopelman stayed at and it is where he met Lava.

This site shows what it takes to become a Marine, which is what Kopelman was.  It takes a lot of hard work and strength, but seeing Lava in Fallujah brought him back down to earth.

    The rating for this book on this site is a 4.1 out of 5!  I think that it deserves a 5 out of 5.

    This site contains a list of quotes that relate to Iraq as a country and the people as a whole.  The Iraqi people were heavily discussed in the book.

    While searching information on this site you can figure out what kind of breed of dog Lava is.  Can you figure it out?  I couldn't find any more sites that weren't repeats of anything that I have already found.  If you find any more I would love to see them.
