A Big Little Life, A Memoir of a Joyful Dog by Dean Koontz

October 15th, 2009 | admin | non-fiction, adult, young adult

Wonderful stories about pets, especially dogs, just seem to cross my path. This book is a quick read that has a lasting impact. It is the 3rd book that Dean Koontz, popular author of mysteries, has written about his beloved dog, Trixie.  Trixie was an assistance dog trained by Canine Companions for Independence (CCI). She retired at the ripe old age of 3 to become the pet of the writer and his wife, Gerda. The gifts that Koontz describes in this delightful book seem immeasurable and if you have been fortunate to have such a pet in your life, you will easily identify with the joyful life of Trixie and the Koontzes.

Especially recommended for all dog lovers, but everyone else, too!
