YOU WILL NEVER SMELL A SWEETER STORY

You don't have to be married to a Veterinarian who also owns a kennel, or be a Boston Terrier enthusiast as I am to enjoy this poingnant "tale" about human nature, love, understanding and the wonderful human/animal bonding experience.A refreshing read for anyone who loves to "get inside" a family and actually feel the emotions of the charachters and a new special friend. The title became a paw print on a petal in my heart at the end of the book - truly touching - written as though the "friend" was actually telling me the story sitting by a warm and cozy fireplace.The fact that it is a true story makes it even more remarkable. Once you read it, you will never look at a rose the same. It uplifted my spirit and made me feel wonderful to experience the integrated family live life and learn things that only people who are lucky enough to become close to someone much unlike themselves.Love of animals and the true beauty of the human condition and a few little dogs makes for an unforgetable love story. I have loaned it to many friends, and it has been returned quickly because it's one of those books you devour quickly and don't want to end. I wish there was a sequel. I hunger for the knowledge of how their lives are going. Absolutely a perfect book for anyone who believes in promises - and it may even make a cynic a little softer hearted. If you're lucky, you may even experience the scent of a rose at the end - I think I did!Don't let this book get by you. A timeless story for teens and adults and even a great story to read to your children.
