It starts with a misshapen pup thrown out into the wild, who manages to come back a magnificent dog. Then it's lots of stories about how he truly loves his master, and said master winning in life because of the dog. Fun fluff. There are a few too many coincidences - times when the two of them are separated (again). I like the camping trip one best - Bobby is just being a (smart) dog, not a miracle-worker. Enjoyable, and probably worth rereading (again) in a few years. I have read it before (a good many years ago), but I didn't remember anything except the barest sketch of the first story. ( ) Last night I reread a favorite from my childhood, Lochinvar Luck by the author of the "Lad" books, Albert Payson Terhune. Each chapter is another episode/adventure in the lives of Jamie MacKellar and his collie, Bobby. While I recall reading this book as a child and loving it, as an adult I found plenty of character and plot development to also enjoy. It's always a good thing to find a story that transcends age and reading ability. Four well-deserved stars, a blue rosette and a shiny silver cup for this 'Best of Show'. sem críticas | adicionar uma crítica

This heart-warming book tells the story of the runt of a litter of collie who is relinquished in a forest and, through indomitable courage and intelligence, manages to stay alive and learn the ways of the wild. This lovely book was written by the master of dog-based literature Albert Payson Terhune and constitutes a must-read for dog-lovers and fans of Terhune s work, expertly composed with the passion those familiar with his writing have come to expect. Albert Payson Terhune (1872 1942) was an American author, journalist and avid dog breeder, most renowned for his writing of dog-based literature. Originally published in 1923, this scarce antiquarian book is republished here with a prefatory biography of its author." Não foram encontradas descrições de bibliotecas. |
