Wonerful! One of the best animal stories of our time!,
By staffeil@execpc.com (Oconomowoc, Wisconsin) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Only (Mass Market Paperback)
'Only' is a heartwarming, enduring, and, at times, funny account of life, love and family as seen through the eyes (and the heart) of a dog named Only. Winston Groom uses beautiful yet simplistic language without having the need to make the dog actually talk. You feel what Only feels by his experiences and his reactions to them. Groom takes you into the heart and mind of what is truely man's best frined. The story moves quickly but without sacrificing any grace. Once you read 'Only' you'll never be able to call your dog just a "dog" again.... read this with your dog curled up next to you so he's there when you need to give him a hug.

Great Afternoon Read,
By A Customer
This review is from: Only (Mass Market Paperback)
A fantastic book that any animal lover is sure to appreciate. Can easily be read in one afternoon. A box of tissues is a prerequisite to this very touching, sometimes funny look at life through a dog's eyes.
