Worth a Read submitted by monkk on June 28, 2011, 3:51pm This book is worth the read for the author's amazing descriptions of the dogs and their behavior (even though I didn't really like the ending).
didn't like this one at all submitted by 21621031390949 on August 12, 2016, 10:20am I really disliked this book. I felt thoroughly manipulated by the tearjerker, unrealistic quality of this book. don't understand what all the fuss was about and why people like it so much.
