🐕About the book🐕
This book has many achievements in the short span of three years. First of all, was when ‘Daily News & Analysis’ a leading English Daily Newspaper featured this book in their ‘Time for Books’ section within a month of the book’s release.
Soon, the book caught the attention of the legendary actor Mr. Amitabh Bachchan and he wrote an emotional letter wishing the book success. Things didn’t end here. The next was a letter from the Hon’ble Union Minister Smt. Maneka Ghandhi.
During this, the readers had started talking about the book, and as author’s first one he was interviewed by Radio One. The interview was aired for five continuous days and repeated many times over the time.
The most recent one is from the king of romantic songs, Ankit Tiwari, who sent a message to the author on Instagram and called him for an in-person meeting.

🐕Review🐕
🐾The cover of the book is really pretty. It’s one of the reasons I was attracted to this book.
🐾The book talks about cute and innocent pet Saint Bernard, who was lorn and left to fend off himself with a hope of survival.
🐾Narration is good and engaging. So is the plot. Easy-to-gasp language helps the story moving ahead well that tempered its content.
🐾 I think this heart touching story is specifically created for the need of today’s circumstances. The views of the unsocial activities on the animals are on a sharp rise in the middle of the lockdown.
🐾 The intriguing concept apart, what’s interesting about the book is that a large part of the entire theme shared about how an animal itself feels, so that we, human beings, can relate with them easily.
🐾Overall, it is a lovely book and one can only get a positive outcome out of this.
