Publisher Description: When does a dog's behavior become too dangerous for even the most loving person to accept? Karen Shanley tackles this question in lyrical prose and brings to life her relationships with three very different dogs: Kiera, Molly, and Magic, who all manage to capture Shanley's heart. Dogs of Dreamtime makes readers take a long, hard look at what matters most in life, and what does not--what can and cannot be controlled. This is a touching story that will stay with readers forever. |
