As dog lover I loved this book. Also I am going to Veitnam next year and it was lovely to read about the country. I am from northern Ireland and know how passionate we feel. Really worth reading
Stacey H, Reviewer
Any book with a dog in it gets my vote! Especially knowing that Tom was rescued from a meat market. A dog certainly is man's best friend.
