That was a great book! I actually listened to it while driving to work. It was read by Ted the author and by the end you really felt like you knew Merle. My husband was worried though when I was seen crying in my car in the driveway.
I just finished it two nights ago. I was crying my eyes out and my husband had no idea what was wrong. I was very touched by the whole book. I think it made me feel more normal about the love I have for my pets and the devastation I feel when I lose one to age or illness.
