This was a Book Club pick. I have seen this at book stores before but never picked it up. I wish I would have read this book sooner. It is a fantastic read for anyone who has a pet!
Being a dog lover and having a dog all of my life this book hit home with the idea of, “What are they thinking?" I loved the way that Stein told the story through Enzo's (the family dog) perspective. This was not a happy story. It starts on the last day of Enzo's life and is a look back on what happened in his 11 years.
Denny, Enzo's master is what the book focused on. We learn about the relationship between Master and pet and what a man with a family can endure. But the reader also learns the daily activities and desires of Man's Best Friend.
I cried a few times, felt anger and happiness. What more can you ask for from a book? This was a great read.
