I think I just wasn't in the right mood for this story. It is emotional and serious, and I think I wanted something a little lighter. I do think it is a good story and I will probably try it again, but for right now I just thought it was an okay read.

This is a story about how Tucker the Dog helped heal a young boy‘s broken heart after his father died in a farm accident. It‘s a novella, so it‘s a short, feel-good read with lots of snow and Christmas. It always feels so good to find books featuring dogs that aren‘t tragic. I read A Dog Named Christmas last year but I think I may read it again. 🐕❄️🎄

Another feel good story that revolves around the healing power of animals. George is just 12 when his father is killed is a tragic accident on the family farm in Kansas. His sisters are in college and his mother returns to her family in Minnesota leaving him in the care of his grandparents. Tucker, a loveable Irish Setyer, comes along just when George needs a friend most. 4⭐

This was a wonderful book. It was feel good for the most part. There was also perserverance and teamwork plus family values.
