An excellent book that truly shows the complexities of human emotion. I never thought that I would be able to empathize with a group of terrorists, but by the end of this book, I could nearly relate. This book really makes you reconsider what lies behind actions, and exemplifies how actions speak louder than words.

A story of a unique boy and his relationship with his family dogs. Outstanding read, though I was disappointed by the ending. The characters, plot, and location of the story are developed beautifully, though.
