Oh my gosh this book ALWAYS makes me cry and tugs at my heartstrings. Probably because it involves a dog. Also probably because it's written by DiCamillo. That's a success in and of itself.

Good children's book. Quick read. Cute dog.

Not my favorite read. I loved the movie. The book just doesn't add anything. If you are gonna spend 2 hrs. doing something you may as well just watch the movie.
