There is no other word to describe this book except for... ENCHANTING! 'Tango' is the cutest dog's tale (pun intended) that I've read in a looooong time. Maybe since 'Because of Winn-Dixie'.
Once you start reading 'Tango' you may think you're just reading a sugary little story about a Yorkshire Terrier puppy... but you're not. Before you know it, you're intertwined in this dog's life, and you find yourself in a dramatic, sweeping account of love, family, and how one finds true happiness in life.
Tango, the little Yorkie who loves his ritzy New York owner, Marcellina, gets shipwrecked, alone, and on the doorstep of death. The villagers in Victoria-by-the-Sea find him and take great interest in the little dog that came from the sea. As Tango heals, his longing for the beloved Marcellina increases, although he has no means of getting to her.
The story is told sometimes by the people, and sometimes from the island animals' point of view. Much drama can take place in a little village concerning a little brown dog with a stump for a tail.
There were several clues spread throughout the book that the author, Eileen Beha, is a true L.M. Montgomery fan. While reading about the Pitiful Place, I always could only imagine the same scenes I created in my mind long ago while reading about the Disappointed House in 'Emily of New Moon'.
So many elements and characters in the plot come together seamlessly in the story, forming the full grand scheme. I found myself so excited to learn how each character's part of the story would unfold in Victoria-by-the-Sea (I fell in love with the entire village). That's how it is when an author writes about Prince Edward Island... an orphan or two... and spices it with enchantment.
