Seller: World of Books (was SecondSale), Montgomery, IL, U.S.A.
Hardback. Condition: Good. The ultimate road-trip story--a treat for readers and dog lovers everywhere.When mystery writer David Rosenfelt and his family moved from Southern California to Maine, he thought he had prepared for everything. They had mapped the route, brought three GPSs for backup, as well as refrigerators full of food, and stoves and microwaves in which to cook it. But traveling with twenty-five dogs turned out to be a bigger ordeal than he had anticipated, despite the RVs, the extra kibble, volunteers (including a few readers), and camping equipment. Rosenfelt recounts the adventure of moving his animal companions across the United States with humor and warmth, and tells the tale of how he and his wife became passionate foster parents for rescue dogs, culminating in the creation of the Tara Foundation and successfully placing several thousand dogs with loving families. As poignant as it is hilarious.--Library Journal (starred review) Will make you laugh, cry, and want to adopt a dog from the nearest shelter--all on the same page.--The Examiner.
