The Art of Racing in the Rain
 | Average Customer Rating: Recommend Enzo knows he is different from other dogs: a philosopher with a nearly human soul (and an obsession with opposable thumbs), he has educated himself by watching television extensively, and by listening very closely to the words of his master, Denny Swift, an up-and-coming race car driver. Through Denny, Enzo has gained tremendous insight into the human condition, and he sees that life, like racing, isn't simply about going fast. Using the… Product details and pricing info |

- Woof Woff - Extraordinary, Fabulous, Superb need I say more!
- Loved this book! Brought back so many fond memories of my little "POLO" who was with me for 14 years - may he RIP. Today as I walk the streets in NYC I find myself talking to dog owners and recommending this book. Truly enjoyed the journey, I laugh, cried, and laugh again. . . incredible. :)

- If it keeps your wife up
- I bought this book for my wife and I can't remember when (been married 41 years) I bought her a book that she couldn't put down. She didn't come to bed she read it almost non stop (she did put it down so she could fix my meals). Then she told me the story in such detail I did not have to read it. She loved it!

- A dog's Mind
- I shy away from books or videos in which dogs or other animals can suddenly talk or act like humans. They are generally too "cutesy" and unrealistic. I don't remember what drew me to this book but I am thankful. Garth Stein has such an insight to a dog's mind that one must wonder if he, too began the life chain as a dog some life-times ago. I laughed and cried throughout the book and I have recommended it to many others. If you start reading, you won't put it down, you won't regret it, and you'll never look at your own dog the same way again.
