A book that every pet lover should read!
A friend told me to read Racing in the Rain, as I am a dog lover. When I found out it was a story told by a dog, I was not sure how I would like it. The book was wonderful! Everytime the dog said words of wisdom, I felt I was really listening to a dog. The story is about a dog who has decided he is at the end of his life, then goes back and tells you his life story. It is a story for anyone who is losing someone they love or has to make the decision to give a loved one permission to go. Granted it is a dog story and if you have a loved pet, you can identify with everything the dog and owner are going through, but a great deal of the dog fits any relationship. I have given copies of the book to 8 people and everyone has told me how much they enjoyed the story. It really is a must read!!Read full review

ABSOLUTE MUST READ
Being a voracious reader my co-worker recommended the book she was reading. Since this was a story involving a family pet and his forever family I was eager to purchase the book. When I took it out of the mail on Sunday I thought I would read a chapter or two but ended up reading the entire book that day. This is the story of life through the eyes of a dog. It made me laugh but most of all pulled at my heartstrings for the very special family he has and the bond that lasted over his lifetime. This is an absolute MUST READ for everyone that has ever had a special furbaby.
