Customer Reviews

An amazing story and even lovelier design

This is a heartwarming and universal tale of unconditional love and affection. Although it's about a dog and a man who found each other, it's really about so much more. The other thing that struck me was the simple design, the feel and the weight of the book and the flip book image in the lower corner (that my son can't get enough of). The powerful experience of this book is a result of both the story *and* the feel of the book itself. Read it and pass on its wonderful message.

This book made me Cry - A Beautiful Story

This story is beautiful and inspirational. It touched me. i love the layout, and the slow unfolding of the story - as it pays tribute to the slow unfolding of Bob's life. Thank you Tom Corwin, for sharing this beautiful story.

Mostly Bob is a TREASURE!

Power of Love

This book is a beautiful tribute to a very special dog and, more importantly, a touching lesson in the value of looking beyond the surface before passing judgement. It packs a big punch into a few words. If the author had passed up the stinky dog next door, he would have missed out on the relationship of a lifetime. I've read the book a few times now and the lesson goes deeper with each read.
