Customer Reviews

"Dog"gone good read

I bought John Fredericks' book "Jordan's Paws Across America" a week ago. I finished it in two days. Couldn't hardly put it down. Better than "Marley and Me" (movie was good but book was slow). Mr. Fredericks is truly an advocate for pets and a firm believer of "Adopt, don't Shop". This book is a love story of a different kind. It was wonderful. Everyone that is a pet lover should buy it and read it. Give it as a gift. I did.

Loving Tribute

I loved this book. It really gave an insight into John and Jordans life away from the channel 3 newsroom. I had the pleasure of meeting Jordan once and he was one of the sweetest dogs I have ever met. Now after reading the book, I realize how right on I was. The book is a nice and easy read. I found myself both giggling and crying upon occasion as it reminded me of times with the pups that I have had that have crossed over the bridge and are waiting for me as Jordan is waiting for John. For potential readers outside of the local area that do not know John Fredericks or Jordan, if you are a pet lover, you will really enjoy this book. Trust me - it will really hit home in a lot of ways.

What a candid & heart-warming look at our favorite weatherman & his dog

After watching John & Jordan on TV for many years, we felt John's pain at his loss. We missed the "team", and were overjoyed when John found LJ. The book was well written & provided us with an up-close and personal look at the relationship between the man & his dog. John would never have been able to do that on television.

Very touching and told with such sincerity!

You've heard this before, but I started reading and I couldn't put it down until I read the last word! There was truly an amazing, unique bond between this writer and his "boy". Thanks, John for sharing this story.

FANTASTIC WRITE/READ!!

I happened to have the wonderful pleasure of having attended John's first book signing on Saturday at the Dewey Animal Shelter in Las Vegas, Nevada. I started reading it upon returning home and couldn't put it down. I finished it in two days. This book was written with such heart-felt emotion from John to Jordan. You can't help but to be emotionally moved by John and Jordan's adventures. If you can take away just one thing from reading this book, it would be compassion for one of life's beautiful creatures, your best friend - a dog. I thank John for sharing his memories.
