Good Dog. Stay. 64 reviews
Anna Quindlen
Random House, 2007
Good Dog. Stay
+ I do not like dog books ~ but I love my dog!
+ A "rea" dog story
Short and oh so sweet!
Yes this is more of an essay than a full blown novel, but the writing is worth every dime. There are so many phrases in the book that I read and re-read. Spend the money and keep this book for revisiting over and over.
