The picture to the left is my dog Simba

From the back cover:
"She was the loneliest pup in the litter-a deaf and partially blind albino Great Dane. She had huge, sky blue eyes. And when Dan Dye reached for her, she struggled to her feet like a clumsy foal, raised her forehead to his, and announced, as clearly as if she had actually spoken the words, "You know I'm the one. Now get me outta here!"

My dog is deaf, this seems like the perfect story to read to him (yes I read to him despite the fact that he's deaf).
And there's this adorable picture of Gracie on the cover-she really has sky blue eyes!

Delightful, wonderful, and touching! This book is a well-written account about a special dog named Gracie who touched many people's hearts.

I cried at the end. I couldn't help but think of the many different kinds of animals that I have shared my life with in the past (and present). They are/were very special to me.

Thanks for the bookring!

Mailing to fizzfred on Thursday.

This is a really sweet book. I can't imagine having a deaf Great Dane! But, I can imagine loving a dog like its part of the family. I can also imagine learning important life lessons from a dog. :) Isn't there a poem about learning everything you need to know from your dog? Anyway, thanks so much, Sobergirl, for sharing such a good book with us. I will send it to Citrus once I get her address.
