Good Dog. Stay. by Anna Quindlen

5.0

As other readers have noted, this is a very short book. In fact, I would clarify that this is more of an essay accompanied by many, many photos between two book covers. As such, I would suggest you take this book out of your local library as opposed to buying it because it's just not worth it. But on to the plot: the book follows the life of Beau, Anna Quindlen's black labrador from puppyhood to his death. It talks about the life of a dog and what it can teach us (humans) about our own lives and deaths. It is a tearjerker, so make sure to bring along many, many tissues. I really, really loved but then again I'm a sucker for dogs and the companionship and love that they can provide their owners.
