Rescuing Sprite

And now, for the first time, two book reviews in a row.


I recently ordered "Rescuing Sprite" by Mark R. Levin, as a gift for my Mom, who is here, visiting from New York. The book arrived a few days before Mom did, and I was looking it over, and started to read the introduction, and ending up reading the entire book.

For anyone who is thinking that the authors name is familiar, Mark Levin is a Conservative Radio talk show host, and while I love his political commentary, there is none of that in this book whatsoever.

This book is about a man and his family, and their relationship with their dogs. Some people have made the mistake of thinking that strictly a dog book, and if you enter into it with that expectation, you probably won't like it, because that's not what it's about. It's about people and dogs, and the relationships that they share.

The writing style is kinda unique as well. At first I couldn't quite figure it out, but then it hit me, Mark wasn't writing in a classical writing style. It felt more like reading a letter from a dear old friend than it like reading a book.

From a literary standpoint, it was a quick and easy read, but from an emotional standpoint, there wasn't much that was all that easy about it.

Anyway, I really liked this book and highly recommend it.

I really think you'll enjoy reading this, especially if you're a dog lover.
