The Art of Racing in the Rain is one of my favorite books of all time, but the subsequent middle grade edition of the book and now this picture book spin-off just don't contain the same magic as the original. This is a nice enough story, but it's nothing I will remember the way I remember The Art of Racing in the Rain.

Sweet story about a dog that likes to run and the little girl who adopts him.

[b:The Art of Racing in the Rain|3153910|The Art of Racing in the Rain|Garth Stein|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1377206302s/3153910.jpg|3175590] is my favourite contemporary book, and the most heartbreaking thing I've ever experienced. Here is a less painful part of Enzo's life done in the form of a children's storybook, with a super adorable cover to display on a shelf. I am not too old for this.

I can see kids reading this as children then just being completely crushed when they read the grown-up version.
