 Overcoming Barriers January 7, 2009
Catherine Vaughn (Pittsboro, NC)
This is a lovely story about animals and a disabled boy overcoming not only disability barriers but also general barriers in life that we all face. A good and entertaining lesson for us all.
 Riveting. Moving. Memorable January 7, 2009
Dr. Emily (Carmel, Indiana)
This is an amazing tale, written beautifully and full of mystical, poetic prose. I could not put this book down and commend the author for his original and breathtaking account of a very special boy.
Without reservation I have recommended it to many and I anticipate remembering this wonderful tale for many years to come.
Not always a happy ending January 6, 2009

Edgar Sawtelle had me spellbound. I was clearly not going to put this book down until I read the conclusion. Suffice it to say.. I do expect a sequel...if there is a possiblility that dogs could write. If and when a sequel is written, there might not be any spare time left in my life. Hmmmm that is a thought. At least I have more trust in a Sawtelle dog than I do in our present Government. What has become of "Forte"? Admittedly, I will be first in line to pre-order the sequel..
 Tedious and Self-Indulgent January 6, 2009

This book is tedious, self-indulgent, and over-hyped. It is a rip-off of Hamlet, books by Martha Grimes (human-like animals), and even Hard Times by Dickens (the loyal circus dog). After suffering through this book, there is no ending. The exhausted reader is left up to guessing what happens to the dogs. One can only assume they go to Henry Lamb's farm. I cannot recommend this book.
 What Happened? January 6, 2009

I loved the players and the twisted, exciting story build up, but.....did the author suddenly leave town before writing the last chapter? This was not an ending, only a terrible, deflating, defeating let down. The Story of Edgar Sawtelle: A Novel (Oprah Book Club #62)
