Publisher's summary

The acclaimed author of The Honest Truth delivers his most emotionally powerful novel yet. Brodie was a good dog. And good dogs go to heaven.

Except Brodie can't move on. Not just yet. As wonderful as his glimpse of the afterlife is, he can't forget the boy he left behind. The boy he loved, and who loved him in return.

The boy who's still in danger.

So Brodie breaks the rules of heaven. He returns to Earth as a spirit. With the help of two other lost souls - lovable pitbull Tuck and surly housecat Patsy - he is determined to find his boy and to save him. Even if it costs him paradise. Even if he loses his eternal soul.

Because it's what a good dog would do.

Another wonderful book by Dan Gemainhart

If you have ever loved a pet, this book is for you. You will fall in love with Brody, Tuck and even Patsy. I won’t say more as I don’t want to spoil it for anyone.
I didn’t think I would ever like another book as much as I loved Mr Gemainhart”s “The Honest Truth”, but this is right up there with favorite book ever. I will definitely recommend this to students looking for a “good dog story”.

Not voice but book

I really liked the book it was great and I enjoyed it but I didn’t like the part where it said “you, me, together, always” I get the meaning and liked it but I thought it should have been “you, me, together, forever” I think that would have been better. I also wish that the book kept going to see patsy, and aiden but maybe there will be another book for that. One more thing I didn’t like was the narrators voice and what I mean by that is it should have been a little faster but there is a button that makes the voice faster which I appreciate anyway great book and is now my favorite but I think a little needs to be changed

10 Thumbs Up👍🏽

It’s a worthy challenge to put words to the mastery of this story telling! As usual Dan Gemeinhart brings the heart, grit, and warmth of life and loss powerfully to the table. Tackling tough topics through the relentless lens of inescapable, undeniable LOVE!

Woven together through rich & warm tones of narration - this is a MUST HEAR in my book.

Beautiful story

This is a beautifully narrated story about a boy and his dog, about love and loyalty that cannot be conquered by death. It has wonderful messages about faith, friendship, and the power of hope against all odds. One of the best stories I have every read

Good, but Sad

We are big animal lovers in our house and I wanted to read this before my kids did. I haven't gotten to it yet, so I decided to listen to it. Anyways, this was a sweet story about a dog who loves his boy so much, but I'm not going to have my kids read it just because I don't think they can handle the really sad parts in it. It's pretty sad for me as an adult and honestly, who enjoys reading/listening sad books?
