5 out of 5 stars The Kick Butt Canadian Book   September 19, 1999
 6 out of 7 found this review helpful

This is THE GREATEST BOOK to ever be written by any Canadian author. I'm 15 and I have this book, but it never leaves my bedside. This is one book that should be read, over and over. It totally shows love in its purest form.


5 out of 5 stars One of the great books of our time.   April 6, 1999

I first read this book when I was twelve, on a lazy day, at my grandparents house. I have never enjoyed a book as much before or since! It has to be one of the funniest books ever written while at the same time incredibly heartwarming. I've been looking for a copy for years and am going to buy several more as gifts. If you want to lure your kids away from the tube for a few hours get them to try this book. You won't be sorry!


5 out of 5 stars Perhaps the best book ever written.   December 22, 1998
I've read more complex and demanding books but never have I enjoyed a book more. Mowat's "The Boat who wouldn't float" comes in second.

Read it to your kids. Im going to read it to my kids as soon as it arrives. I've lost my copy (lent it out and it didn't return) so I'm ordering a new one today.


5 out of 5 stars A must for anyone who loves animals.   November 6, 1998

My family discovered Mowat when I was in my teens and we read as many of his works as we could find. The Dog Who Wouldn't Be particularly touched all of us, adult and child alike, because we all love dogs (and people) who are just a little different!


5 out of 5 stars Wondrous story writing for child and ault   October 21, 1998

I first read this book when I was seven or eight and was on vacation at my grandmother's farm. I read a lot as a child, this book stands out so clearly from so many others. A wonderful, warm and funny book that I am going to enjoy reading to (and with) my boys this holiday season.
