Racing in the Rain: My Life as a Dog by Garth Stein

For some people this is the story of a family and their dog Enzo, but for me is so much more than that, for me this is the story of a dog and his best friend. The book is told in the dog's perspective and tells the story of an amateur race car driver, his family and how they go throw the obstacles life has put on their way, you can share every emotion and as you read the book you will laugh and you may need a box of tissues. There's nothing else I could say about this book without giving too much.

I believe that you don't need to love dog's or know a thing about racing. There are important life lessons on this book and I think everybody should give it a try. This is the adaptation for young readers of the original book The Art of Racing in the Rain, and If you are interested in reading this book I can tell you one thing, This story will stay with you long after you have read it.
