Well I cried. All I knew about this book is it was sad, and I didn't know where the sad part was and thus I was waiting to be emotionally destroyed at every turn.
It's a great book if you love dogs and borders on genocide if you love raccoons.
Just a good, simple story. A great glimpse into a simpler time. I loved the nostalgic feeling I got while reading it.
