I personally think that this book was great!
If you love animals than you will like this book because it involves animals! Dessa Dean finds a homeless dog and gives it a home.Read this book because it is one of the best books that i have ever read!
this book is mostly about a girl named Dessa Dean and the Leanin Dog.there are some sad times and some happy times. so if you dont like saddness or happiness i wouldnt read this book.
