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.

An amazing and endearing "Tail"!!!

I purchased this after I read the the book. And.....I enjoyed it so much more! It is the kind of story that stirs up every emotion we have inside- joy, anger, sadness, excitement, humor, contentment, etc.... It is full of witty dialogue, heart-wrenching decisions, and life lessons....given to us honestly and simply by man's best friend, a dog.
This is a must-have for my fellow dog lovers who believe that life isn't complete without a faithful canine by your side!

Gives your dogs life a purpose!

If you read/listened to A Dog's Purpose, by Bruce Cameron and enjoyed it, this is a natural next step in the story. It is a similar story, yet it has nicely evolved into its own story. It takes us once again on the sometimes heart-wrenching story of our love of our dogs and the loss of our pet! The story revolves around one woman as she starts life as a baby and how her dog, follows her through her life, helping her when needed and their eternal bond. Narration is great and the story is heart warming and endearing, sad and at the same time redeeming. If you like your dog and wonder what he's thinking, Cameron gives you some insight to what may be going on with our furry friends! Good read, good listen!

Great sequel, very captivating

If you loved the first book you'll love this one as much as the first. If you're a dog lover, and if you've ever lost your dog, you will find it hard to hold back the tears.

Wonderful story

I’ve enjoyed W. Bruce Cameron’s book series about a dog’s life and journey. I would suggest that it might be appropriate to have two readers — one male and one female, given the fact that the canine characters are both male and female. I realize, however, that could prove confusing as well. Either way, the books are wonderful.

Sweet story but very similar to his other books.

Hard to give it a completely objective criticism; it's another heartwarming dog tale. Wish it was more than a continuation of the first Dog's Purpose novel. Still, the drama is suspenseful without being hair-raising and the characters are endearing. I would say this a book nearly the entire family could enjoy (might not be suitable for the under 5 crowd).

Excellent sequel to A Dog’s Purpose!

Love how this picked up where the first book ended! It had such a good flow to it that I hardly noticed it wasn’t still the first book. Very well narrated (that really was the icing on the cake for this story). This story really makes me love my dogs even more! Fantastic ending too!!

Another heart warming book

Bruce’s books never disappoint. He has a great gift of seeing the world through a dogs eyes, and making it relatable to the readers. Thanks to everyone involved in making these books!
