About this deal

En esta novela conocemos la historia de "Bailey", un perruno muy particular. A través de varias de sus diversas reencarnaciones, desde un perro salvaje hasta doméstico, un muy confundido y aventurero Bailey se lanzará en una búsqueda existencial, tratando de encontrarle un sentido a sus múltiples vidas, y su naturaleza perruna. Bailey es un buen perro, y cuando encuentra a un Ethan de ocho años, todo parece caer en su lugar; pero la vida de un perro es frágil, y Ethan corre peligro...

Thoughts I had while listening: Dogs can be really annoying; most dog owners are awful people; I really want to train Fritz to be a search and rescue dog; I want to teach Fritz how to open a door with his mouth; I don't know if I have the patience to train a puppy again; I want to adopt a senior dog. We named the dog Cammie. She arrived in my life when I was just beginning to connect some of the dots in my memory to make a picture of who I was, forming my identity as a child. I remember every skinned knee and bicycle ride in the context of Cammie, who was always there for me. And I lost her just as I was starting to leave childhood behind, passing on after I’d spent a year in college. That’s Cammie, the dog of my childhood. I now knew why these creatures, these human beings, had so fascinated me from the moment I saw them. It was because my fate was inextricably linked with theirs. Especially Ethan—that was the bond of a lifetime. Since that time, both of Cameron’s best-selling novels have made their way to the silver screen, with “A Dog’s Purpose” becoming a global hit and one of the biggest dog-themed movies of all time.

My eternal hold finally ended and it was my turn at the perfect time so I read this book on Day 1 of the challenge. And pretty much looked like . . . . .

A Universal Pictures release of an Amblin Entertainment and Reliance Entertainment presentation in association with Walden Media of a Pariah production This book came highly recommended to me. I enjoyed it but I did enjoy "The Art of Racing in the Wind" more. What is great about this book is that it can be enjoyed by most readers - young and old alike. Yes, parts are very sad. But owning a pet is a great responsibility as is letting that pet go. WE learn a lot from our pets: love, companionship, responsibility, and coping with loss. People love dogs..dogs love people. It's the perfect match.

The first dog, a St. Bernard/Australian shepherd mix named Bailey, is the same dog who survived the end of A Dog’s Purpose. He is euthanized in the barn by a vet after Ethan finds a lump on his belly.

So much build only for things to quit like that. The job of a good dog was ultimately to be with them, remaining by their sides no matter what course their lives might take. All I could do now was offer him comfort, the assurance that as he left this life he was not alone but rather was tended by the dog who loved him more than anything in the whole world. SNAP! there goes my last heartstring. UPDATE TO MY REVIEW BELOW! I JUST FOUND OUT ON FACEBOOK THAT THIS BOOK IS NOMINATED FOR THE GOODREADS CHOICE AWARD OF 2010!!!! I hope all the people here who have loved it as much as I did will vote and it wins!

I must be a strange sight to behold when I read one of Bruce Cameron’s books — at some inevitable point, I’m sure to be rather ridiculously fanning my face with a stray postcard or travel brochure, making a frantic and futile attempt at preventing mascara from uncontrollably spilling out of my eyes and smearing down my cheeks, thus betraying an otherwise composed and well-polished poker face. (Guess that’s what I get for not using the waterproof kind.) The book is suitable for readers of all ages and Baily gradually grows in wisdom as his life continues. There is a huge twist in the story too which I am reluctant to reveal because of spoilers. I prefer to tempt potential readers to discover for themselves what is so different about this beautiful book.

Within this novel, there was a marked difference between what was told to the audience and what Bailey understood. For example: “Bailey’s a hero, now. Todd’s leg took eight stitches.” At the mention of my name, both Duchess and I froze. Dog biscuits, maybe? The only thing that kept this from being a 5-star book was the ending.

Baily shares with us all the thoughts and emotions he encounters on life in general. The central question he meets and considers... is what the purpose of life is overall. It is a question that most of us will surely ask ourselves at one time or other. La pluma del autor es muy ligera, lo que permite que leas el libro entero sin poder parar ni un segundo. Además creo que basándonos en las características de la historia, se exige un ritmo rápido y se debe buscar el interés, porque cualquiera podría pensar que la vida de este animal no tiene nada relevante para aportar. Lo que logra Bruce va incluso más allá de eso. Consigue en unas 300 páginas narrar no sólo la vida de un ser dedicado, fiel, divertido y entrañable, sino que también hace que te preocupes por él y que quieras ser partícipe de su viaje y su descubrimiento.

I anticipated how many or perhaps even all of these reactions would be impacting my heart almost simultaneously, like the dizzying crescendo of light and sound in the grand finale of a fireworks show. I knew we as readers would be leaping tall feelings in a single bound, wholeheartedly loving every minute of it, relishing every finely nuanced step of the journey through the familiar yet thrilling world this author so beautifully paints with his words.

Bailey is a good dog, and when he finds eight years old Ethan, everything seems to fall into place; but a dog's life is brittle, and Ethan is not safe...
