Resumen del Editor

A heart-stirring novel about the joy that comes from finding love in unexpected places by the New York Times and #1 Amazon Charts bestselling author.

Thirteen-year-old Abby Hubble lives in an unhappy home in the Sierra Nevada foothills where her father makes life miserable for her and her mother, Mary. One day Abby witnesses a man dump a litter of puppies into the nearby river. Diving in to rescue all seven, she knows she won’t be able to bring them home. Afraid for their fate at the pound, she takes them to an abandoned cabin, where all she can offer is a promise that she’ll be back the next day.

To grieving widower Elliot Colvin, life has lost meaning. Looking for solace, he retreats to the hunting cabin he last visited years ago, before his wife’s illness. What he discovers is not at all what he expected: seven puppies and one determined girl with an indomitable heart.

As Abby and Elliot’s friendship deepens, Abby imagines how much better her life - and the puppies’ lives - would be if her mother were married to Elliot instead of her father. But when Abby’s father moves the family hundreds of miles away, Abby and her mother must decide how long they’re willing to defer happiness.

Seven Perfect Things is a story about joy, where to find it, how to know it when you see it, and the courage it takes to hang on to it once you have it.

Another wonderful heartwarming story that you can’t put down

I really love these stories about animals. Especially when there are references about those who don’t like to harm any type of ant. As a vegan I love it when animals are treated well in the stories that I read.

Wonderful Story

I actually laid in the floor with my dog and she was so right. Lol. I loved this story I cried with the complete understanding of what they were going through and I laughed with pure joy that sometimes everything works out. It is a must read/audio story. The performance was also excellent!

Wonderful Read

Another winner for Catherine

I LOVE this author. I listened to this and finished it in one day. Just one of those heart warming stories that you hate to have end!

so warm and heartwarming.

this came with love, tragedy & victory all in wonderful amounts. None to sappy or horrific to make me stop. it was a delightful read.

I am a sucker for dogs.

There were improbable elements. The characters that mattered were well developed. The audible presentation was ok. I liked the speed up feature.

I am a sucker for animals - especially dogs

Truly enjoyed the story, the rescue, and all of the adventures. MS Ryan Hyde is always a good author.

rescued puppies becomes a great story

An excellent story of emotional abuse in a domestic situation and how people are hurting can help each other and then there's the magic of puppies.

Nice Story

the mom is a little bit weak as a character, goes but otherwise engaging listen.
