Dog by Britta Teckentrup, Sarah Adams, Daniel Pennac
4.0
As I am owned by a rescue mutt and a cat, I immensely enjoyed this book. It is a sweet, easy-to-read, novella about Dog (a mutt). The story is told from the POV of Dog and the author does a good job depicting how a dog might think and feel. It's clear the author cares a great deal for animals. And the plot was well done—the story was touching, funny in parts and even a bit sad. Any dog lover will enjoy this book.
The only issue I had was a minor one in which Plum gives Dog hot chocolate. Anyone who is a dog lover knows to never give a dog chocolate, as chocolate is poisonous to dogs. So since it seems the author is a dog lover, I'm hoping this was a translation problem (since the original is in French).
