You are absolutely right about it being similar to Black Beauty, Cronk’s book certainly reminded me that animals are intuitive and intelligent creatures not to be underestimated. Thank you for your reply!SamSim wrote: ↑14 May 2018, 14:54 In sounds like, in the spirit of Black Beauty, this book helps connect us to animals and understand that they are sensitive. I like books like this. They keep society at large from underestimating animals' and pets' abilities, intelligence, and importance. Thanks for the review!

Thank you for reading and leaving a reply. Indeed, this book would have gotten a maximum rating once the formatting and grammatical errors are fixed. Furthermore, a book which is so obviously written with sincerity is always a pleasure to read.cpru68 wrote: ↑14 May 2018, 16:21 As a dog lover, I would probably find this book so enjoyable. It sounds like the author just has to do a few quick fixes to give it a top rating. I appreciate a book written by an author that has experience in the subject that he or she is writing about. That really carries through to the writing, and it seems from your review that it happened with this one. Good job on this. I enjoyed your review.

Thank you for your kind comments! Indeed, it’s quite similar to White Fang. If you pick it up I hope you’ll enjoy it as much as I did!cristinaro wrote: ↑16 May 2018, 03:37 This book reminds me of Jack London's White Fang, a book I loved when I was young. I'd like to read about the special relationship between Singer and Ollie. Thanks for your review!

Indeed! It’s always difficult to discuss topics like autism, but I’m glad that Cronkite used such a unique technique, which helped deliver the information in an interesting way. Thank for your lovely comments, and I hope you enjoy reading the book!
