Gary Paulsen’s My life with Dogs is hysterical

I have read this book a dozen times, but never listened to it. It was actually fabulous as a listen too. He is such a dynamic writer and so vivid that you feel right along with him. When reading ~ especially out loud ~ one gets stuck due to laughter- you can hear Gary trying hard not to laugh as he continues on. It is the best!!!!
Would love to hear him read Winterdance!!!

absolutely beautiful

Amazing book about his life and his dogs. I didn't expect to cry but damn, some if those stories were beautiful. I love dogs and I love the outdoor and I love being out there with a dog. He captures that perfectly in this book.
