Book Review: All Dogs Go To Kevin

I love stories written by veterinarians about their quirkier moments. Dr. Jessica Vogelsang delivered to this love beautifully. Jessica has had the love of three dogs who saw her through momentous times in her life. First was a Lhasa Apso named Taffy, then a Golden Retriever named Emmett and a Labrador, Kekoa. They taught her many important lessons and helped her with patience and tolerance, plus, as many dog owners know, they also help bring smiles to the lips.

This is the story of her love for these dogs and the adventures they have been through together. It is written with love that flows from each page.

As another dog lover, I found this book tugging at my heartstrings as I think about each of the dogs in my life and the comfort, joy and love I have found in each one.

I most highly recommend this book. It is wonderful.

I was given this book by NetGalley and Grand Central Publishing in exchange for my honest review.

Book Review: My Summer With Gramps

My Summer With Gramps, by Ignatius Ryan, tells about a developing friendship between a 13 year-old boy and his grandfather. When this teen goes to spends each day one summer with his grandfather he learns so much than what was needed for his book report on "Death of a Salesman." The two talk about a wide variety of topics, including philosophy, politics, and history.

I love watching the new friendship grow between the boy and his grandfather. Plus the new words that the boy discovers, as well as the reader, means that his education is not limited to the classroom.

What a wonderful story. I am so glad I was given the opportunity to read, relish and review this book.
