Publisher's summary

The New York Times best-selling author of A Dog's Purpose continues his heartwarming series that perfectly captures the unconditional loving relationships between people and their loyal best friends in stories no dog lover can resist. Basis for the major motion picture starring Josh Gad and Dennis Quaid!

This program includes an afterword read by W. Bruce Cameron.

Soon to be a major motion picture!

Audiences are invited along on A Dog’s Journey, the next chapter of the beloved best-selling series by author W. Bruce Cameron. The family film told from the dog’s perspective serves as the much-anticipated follow-up to the soulful story of one devoted dog who finds the meaning of his own existence through the lives of the humans he teaches to laugh and love.

After searching for his purpose through several eventful lives, Buddy is sure that he has found and fulfilled it. Yet as he watches curious baby Clarity get into dangerous mischief, he is certain that this little girl is very much in need of a dog of her own.

When Buddy is reborn, he realizes that he has a new destiny. He's overjoyed when he is adopted by Clarity, now a vibrant but troubled teenager. When they are suddenly separated, Buddy despairs - who will take care of his girl?

Directed by Gail Mancuso (TV’s Modern Family, Roseanne), A Dog's Journey is once again produced by Gavin Polone (A Dog’s Purpose, Zombieland). Mancuso directs from an adapted screenplay by Cameron and Cathryn Michon and Wally Wolodarsky and Maya Forbes, based on the book by Cameron. The film from Amblin Entertainment and Walden Media will be distributed by Universal Pictures.

A charming and heartwarming story of hope and unending devotion, A Dog’s Journey is the moving story of unwavering loyalty and a love that crosses all barriers.

A Dogs Journey

What did you love best about A Dog's Journey?

Told from the dogs point of view.

Who was your favorite character and why?

The dog of course

What does George K. Wilson bring to the story that you wouldn???t experience if you just read the book?

He has an amazing way of changing his voice tone for different characters. I loved how he made Gloria sound as whiny in her speech as she was in her character

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Both.

Any additional comments?

An amazing book, I had to listen to it twice. It truly makes you look at your dogs differently.

Great story, but a little dark

I read both A Dog's Purpose and A Dog's Journey, on the recommendation of my students. They are both great stories that drew me in and made me not want to stop reading. You could pick up A Dog's Journey without having read the first, but I would recommend reading them in order as it will be a richer experience. A Dog's Journey deals with much darker topics in the lives of the humans than A Dog's Purpose and I have to admit I was a little sad thinking that my fifth graders had read it. However, being that it is from the perspective of a dog, there topics are dealt with lightly. I would just encouraged parents to read it before letting their young children read it.

Happy Reading and may we all find our purpose in the people we love.

A suitable sequel to a Dog's Purpose

Laughter, tears, smiles and sighs occur during your listen to this continuation of what all pet lovers hope is true...the objects of our slavish devotion will return to us later in life, perhaps in a different breed, but their acceptance, their love of us continues through time until we join them on the other side of the rainbow bridge.

Great story as always

Great story writing, following Molly's point of view on the life of her human, passing through several reincarnations. The narrator was much to be desired, kind of dull to be a dog.
