This is a picture book that I was reluctant to read because it was about a dog who did amazing things. I have no idea why that made me think I wouldn’t like it, to be honest. Sentimental dog stories always get to me. Benji and Balto made me cry. I remember enjoying Lassie as a kid. Heck, even the end of the Futurama episode when Fry finds his fossilized dog makes me bawl uncontrollably. But for whatever reason, I sort of expected this story to be boring and bland.
