Busy Mom's Book Club: A Dog's Purpose

Wasn't "The Help" a great book! I haven't seen the movie yet. But good pick ladies!

 The book for this next month is a good one. I read it and LOVED it!!!


This is the remarkable story of one endearing dog’s search for his purpose over the course of several lives. More than just another charming dog story, A Dog’s Purpose touches on the universal quest for an answer to life's most basic question: Why are we here?
Surprised to find himself reborn as a rambunctious golden-haired puppy after a tragically short life as a stray mutt, Bailey’s search for his new life’s meaning leads him into the loving arms of 8-year-old Ethan. During their countless adventures Bailey joyously discovers how to be a good dog.
But this life as a beloved family pet is not the end of Bailey’s journey. Reborn as a puppy yet again, Bailey wonders—will he ever find his purpose?
Heartwarming, insightful, and often laugh-out-loud funny, A Dog's Purpose is not only the emotional and hilarious story of a dog's many lives, but also a dog's-eye commentary on human relationships and the unbreakable bonds between man and man's best friend. This moving and beautifully crafted story teaches us that love never dies, that our true friends are always with us, and that every creature on earth is born with a purpose.

It really is a great book. Kellie H. is hosting this book.
It will be Thursday,  Sept 8 at 12:30pm.
Bring something to share for lunch and questions to share!
You're going to love it.

PS:  If you finish this book fairly quickly, which I know you will, the book for October is "Wild Wood Dancing" by Juliet Marillliar.
