I was looking for a change from crime and this book was it. It was a world populated by animals who can converse with each other and humans who think they understand them.
A book that shows animals have feelings just like humans. They feel pain ,grief and happiness in their too short lives.
They are also capable of unconditional love and loyalty. We can all take a leaf from from the books and lives of so called dumb animals.
For any who likes a lighthearted and paradoxically a read that makes you think, then this is the book for you.
The heroes? of the book are Grandpa Screecher and Scraggly. Opposites who are bonded by love if not understanding.

Read in one sitting for book club. I was skeptical when I saw this was the latest read but I ended up enjoying it despite that is was not upbeat. It was more complex then I was expecting.

Such a beautiful story. I don't often cry anymore when I read books but this one had me welling up. A wonderful story about dog breeding from the perspective of a puppy. We really don't deserve dogs.

This was incredibly sad. It was a fast paced story and didn't involve too many characters which is appreciated as a reader. The ending was wholesome and heartwarming despite the aspects of the story that made me want to cry.
