Reviews
A spare, moving tale. Using simple words that even youngest readers will understand and enjoy, MacLachlan tackles subjects such as death and mourning with understated grace.
-- "Publishers Weekly (starred review)"Magical. A quiet, elegant, poignant story suffused with humor, heart, and goodness.
-- "Kirkus Reviews (starred review)"Narrator Michael Curran-Dorsano takes on the roles of Teddy, the 'talking' Irish wolfhound and dear companion of Sylvan the poet, and of eleven-year-old Nickel and eight-year-old Flora, the children Teddy rescues from a wintry blizzard...Overall, the production has great power.
