The review was written masterfully and I loved how I have the reviewer's opinion of the book and experience to compare to the book's plot and genre in an attempt to decide whether to read the book or not.

That Place Of knowledge is written by a non-verbal, autistic teenager boy named Philip Alan Shalka.
You hooked me with that first sentence. I'm always looking for books that can teach me how the world works for different people (or dogs, in the case of this book's narrator!) and this sounds like it would be a fantastic match for me.

It's great to come across a recommendation for a book that would be loved by all age groups. Will give this a read. Thanks for your review!

You did an excellent job on your review! I like the way you go in depth on the relationships between the characters. You also describe the main points and the lessons in life the author is trying to convey to the readers. I really enjoy a thought provoking novel that may change my perspective on the way I see life around me. I look forward to reading this book!
