I debated between 4 and 5 stars on this - I really did like the book - although, probably not amazing .... How can I not like a book about a dog?! :) I think the author went a little overboard on his descriptions on what the dog was feeling or thinking - so maybe could have done w/out so much of that - and he makes his dog sound simply amazing and how everyone worshipped it - which I dont know the dog, but I think he went a little overboard w/his descriptions on that too. All in all it was a great book - a definite must read for any dog lover. I loved how he not only told the story but also told about different studies of dogs/wolves - that was very interesting to me. Oh - and it's definitely a tear-jerker! I think probably the most I have cried in any book. Dogs really are Man(di)'s best friends! :)
