Story
If there's been a theme in Justine Meade's life, it's loss. Her mother, her home, even her son. The one bright spot in her loss-filled life, the partner she could always count on, was Mack, her grey and black Sheltie – that is, until she is summoned back to her childhood home after more than twenty years away. Ed and Alice Parmalee are mourning a loss of their own. Seven years after their daughter was taken from them, they're living separate lives together. Dancing around each other, and their unspeakable heartbreak, unable to bridge the chasm left between them.

Wonderful
I loved this. If this is your first James Herriot book you are in for a real treat.I have listened many times to the four volume series of James Herriot. I was familiar with all of these stories but I really enjoyed the added tidbits. Did you know that Mrs. Pumphrey helped the first Chinese restaurant in Darrowby to succeed by eating there with Tricky Wu? James Herriot also talks about his other dogs and his last dog, Bodie, who brought him the most pleasure of all.

James Herriot’s Dog Stories
Oh, I do enjoyed these stories. The narrator was perfect. I could picture the dogs, people and scenery like I was there. I read a number of James Herriot books years ago. Can’t wait to listen to them now.
