If Ida Known!!
Wish I could have read this book when I was just a kid, it's a true gem. Adventures of a Scottie dog named Boots, told by Boots (but it' could be you or me). He tells of his joys & fears, his friends & enemies, his knowledge & innocence. The stories Boots shares are interesting, funny & tragic... Well worth reading!!!
