Editorial Reviews

"Young readers (especially those living in and around Chicago) will be delighted by Wilson, the story of a lost dog who ultimately finds his way home. Duffy Karstrom imagines the world through the nose and eyes of Wilson the beagle mix as he wanders the Windy City. Wilson is a fun read, but it has an important message. Readers won't forget that the best place for any dog is at home with a loving human family."

"Wilson: My Dog's Journey is a delightful, imaginative story of Wilson's adventures while he was lost. We've all wondered what mischief a lost dog gets into and Duffy's story will bring a smile to your face. It was one of the happiest moments of my career at SSHS when we got the message that Wilson had been found safe and sound. We're so happy that he was reunited with his family where he lives a wonderful life filled with love!"
