Moved slowly for me.

Hadn't read this book in about 10 years but still just as good.

WAY better than The Joy Luck Club. So good.

Kind of cool to see how dogs were viewed in the late 1920s. There were many references to utilitarianism and getting rid of dogs because they were luxuries, which was interesting... But the stories weren't too captivating, repetitive plot (makes sense... it's a children's book) and there were a lot of sentence fragments that bugged me because it was the author's style of storytelling but it wasn't rubbing off well on me.
