Publisher Description

Lose Yourself in the History, Opulence, and Elegance of the Thousand Islands Cousins Amanda, Sophie, and Fanny Broadmoor are as close as sisters, but when their grandfather dies, the terms of his will just might destroy their bond. Seventeen-year-old Fanny has never put much stock in the conventions of society. In fact, she has given her heart to Michael, the family boat-keeper. But when she receives a surprising inheritance, she discovers just how oppressive society can be... and that she may be trusting the wrong people. Dare she follow her heart and risk going against her family? What if she loses everything she's ever known? It all comes down to one choice: What does Fanny Broadmoor want her legacy to be?

"A Dog's Tale is a short story, told from a dog's perspective. It made me tear-up several times and it also gave me an even deeper respect for Mark Twain, who was so far ahead of his time. In very few pages, Twain created believable characters, situations and emotions, as seen through the eyes of a family dog, to develop a story that touched my heart and will not be forgotten."

Quotes

  • “The writing styles of Ms. Peterson and Ms. Miller remind me of the Anne of Green Gables stories that I loved when I was younger. The relationship that the cousins share is amusing as well as showcases their love for one another, despite their differences.”

    " It was interesting - about the THousand Islands and even mentioned Brockville. Its book one in the series - Christian author not very inspiring on that side of things. An ok read. "

    " As a pet lover I found this story quite distressing amd definitely would not let little children read it. While I can see the point of the casual contempt with which we treat animals and the causual use, abuse and experimentation they are subjected to is still relevant (unfortunately)I hope that as a society we have moved forward form this.

    " This books was pretty good. I really didn't like where it ended, though. But I guess the author really wants you to read the 2nd book in the series... which I'm reading now! :) "

    " I started this book thinking that this story was a first in a series, but that it was a stand-alone. It is not. The trilogy is sequential and if you don't know that before hand, like me, you would be very disappointed by the ending of this book!! That being said, I thought it was a good start- there were lots of points of view, so that was confusing, but it was a good introduction to the second book, which I enjoyed the most. "

    " Heartbreaking short story. I'm not a huge fan of Mark Twain, but found this dog story of interest. So sad that animals in general are treated with such disdain and callousness by the majority of people. Few have the courage to stand up for dogs who prove over and over again their loyalty to man even in the face of cruelty. "

    " Charming story told by the Dog! Witty and sweet it packs a punch at the end. Reminds us that human beings, with the gift of thinking and memory, can be a cruel animal. "

    " This was a really cute book. A cute little romance and easy read. It's the first of a series and really leaves you hanging. Now I have to wait for the next book to be released to continue the story. This book really shows you how greed has the potential to destroy families. "

    " Overall: Being a dog person, I thought it was just ok. It is clear that Twain thought that dogs were a little less than I believe them to be. Other than that, it was a good story from a dog's perspective. "

    " High society living in the late 1800's. Very typical plot of a high society girl following in love with a boy from the wrong side of the tracks. I didn't like the ending of the story. It left you hanging. You think you know what happened, but it isn't confirmed in writing. "
