I just finished a great book by author Garth Stein. It's a novel, not his first. But, it is certainly one of the most memorable reads I have had lately. The narrator and one of the characters in the book is Enzo, a yellow lab who is the most fully realized "person" you would ever want to meet. The book follows the story of the Swift family through all it's ups and downs--career decisions, illnesses and trying to keep a family together. It is funny, touching and along with Enzo by the end of the book I am quite sure he will be reincarnated as a MAN in his next life. Pick it up--you won't be sorry!
A look into the crazy, sometimes bewildering life on the road as a traveling artist...along with some chatty bits about making two-family home work for EVERYBODY.
