Cosmo is a golden retriever, and this book is told in his words. You can’t help but fall in love with this caring, loving, determined dog.
Max, Cosmo’s human, is facing some pretty tough things in life, the biggest being that his parents are constantly fighting. Max is pretty sure they will be getting a divorce. As painful as that would be, he is afraid that a divorce might separate Max and Cosmo. That would be the end of the world.
Max comes up with a plan. It involves dancing with Cosmo. Cosmo, even though he suffers from arthritis and has hurt his paw, will do anything for his human.
I fell in love with both Max and Cosmo. The emotions that are expressed in this story really pull at my heart strings. I would recommend this book to anyone that loves dogs or may be going through some tough life problems.
