Summary: A classic tale of a boy and his dog
Comment: I read this book in 9th grade, about 15 years ago, and am purchasing it to read to my daughters. If you love dogs, and have ever felt that special bond with a dog, you will enjoy this book.
The writing is about a 6th grade level, so it is an easy read. I would recommend most of Jim Kjelgaard's books - although they are all very similar in form and structure.
