Yes, in one case in the book, one woman wanted to feel what it was like to be disabled, so at one point in her life she had an accident that crushed her legs. She knew before the life started when she reviewed her life in the spirit world what would happen to her. In fact she asked her spirit guide to help choose a life so this would happen. She learned to endure pain, become more studious with book learning (since she had a lot of time to herself confined to a bed) amongst other things. She chose a set of parents who also wanted the experience of dealing with a child they could devote a lot of energy to and care for. As a child she didnt know what would happen, since we all have a state of past life amnesia when we are born so it is easier to learn lessons and not be hung up on past mistakes from past lives. Also about living in the third world. What we think of as 'nothing' might be something special to someone else. In my own case I have adequate physical needs met and am comfortable, buy I go through psychological hell on a daily basis that seems to cancel out the positives. There's a great song by The Black Eyed Peas where one of the singers talks about growing up in one of the poorest sections of The Phillipines. He talks about how they survive on what they can by farming, fishing, catching food and helping each other out whenever they can. A real sense of community that is essential to survival. Maybe they have that, when we, who seem to have so much materially feel so isolated and alone in comparison.
As for reincarnating as different animals, The guy Newton who wrote the books I'm reading had not a single case of people being animals in past lives. However in some myths, like one of the celtic myths of the spirit Finnigan, that spirit had once been a salmon, living hundreds of years, also as a raven, swan and other creatures. Celtic, as well as other traditions are rich with stories of past lives as animals.
