an interesting view of life from a dog's perspective...a life of living on the streets with a mentally unstable master and of watching him get sick and die. Mr Bones then has to learn a whole new way to survive and he can't forget his master. Even when he finally finds a nice family, he still longs for his old life with his master and finally finds a way to join him in.....Timbuktu.
This book was interesting as to the viewpoint, a little stiff reading to begin with and I really felt it would be much a more lighthearted read than it was.
