The dog, Boy, recounts the story.

This is a charming tale, told from the dog's perspective. It probably helps if you have read Toujuors Provence by Mayle as many of the situations in this story are similar, but from the dog's view. Sweet, funny and a quick read, the illustrations are charming as well. ( )

This is the "autobiography" of Peter Mayle's adopted mongrel dog. An absolute hoot. ( )

This is a fun, well written book. The "author" offers insights into why a dog behaves as it does that are both amusing and profound. He also presents a point of view on the behaviors of people that amazingly accurate.

If you are a dog person, or just someone who enjoys them from a distance, you will love this book.

This is one of the funniest books I've ever read. If you like dogs, you will love it. I'm always buying copies to give away. ( )
