Gary Paulsen, penulis buku 'Hatchet', khusus menceritakan kisah hidupnya bersama anjing² kesayangannya di buku ini. Kecintaannya terhadap hewan yang satu ini bener² bikin saya kagum dan berpikir, "kok bisa sih suka miara anjing?" secara saya paling tidak suka hewan peliharaan. Mo itu ikan mas, kucing, apalagi anjing.

5th/6th grade classrooms
This is a fun auto biography/memoir for a class. My kids love it so far. I do too. Each chapter is about the author's life and a different dog that came into it. Some chapters gave me chills! Sounds like a really interesting person.

I wasn't even a dog lover when I read this... A great read-aloud too. Think of the stages in your life through the pets you had. This book shows how pets can help a person deal with a dysfunctional family life.

Middleschoolers and adults
While this is a YA book, it has so much to offer adults. It really a little memoir, focusing on the author's interactions with various dogs throughout his life. It's really poignant and emotional, sad and funny.

This is a juvenile nonfiction book which I read aloud to my kids, but I recommend it for adults or kids. Each chapter introduces you to a dog that Gary Paulsen owned and/or loved. Great for dog-lovers.

This is a very easy read (YA), and a good read. It moves fast, each story takes you on a short journey to a time and place the author has known or knows.
Great!

A great and sometimes funny memoir revolving around all the dogs in Gary Paulsen's life. The 5th graders in my room loved it.

Greate short stories about Gary Paulsen and his dogs (many that show up in his books in some form or another).

It may be nonfiction, but it explains all of his dogs when he was growing up.
