Un bon livre pour novembre

[Stroum 0]

Pour ceux et celles qui cherchent un bon livre a lire durant les soirées pluvieuses, je viens de terminer un roman merveilleux, du genre qu'on déguste lentement en buvant un bon chocolat chaud ( ou un café Amarula au choix...).

C'est l'histoire d'un jeune garcon muet dont les parents élèvent des chiens depuis 2 générations. Le rythme est lent mais on y parle de psychologie des chiens, de l'élevage et de l'éducation a travers une histoire de meutre, de famille te ==et de trahison. C'est très très bon. Si vous aimez lire vous serez gâtées.

Le titre: L'histoire d'Edward Sawtelle, édition JC Lattes, auteur: David Wroblewski

J'en avais entendu parler. C'était, je crois, un coup de coeur d'Oprah. Il paraît que c'est super beau.

Je termine "À Genoux" de Michael Connelly et après je vais commencer "A Dog Name Christmas" de Greg Kincair.

"In this heartwarming novel, author Greg Kincaid tells the tender story of how one very special dog changed the lives of his adoptive family—and an entire town—forever.

“Todd, they always want you to adopt a dog. That’s what they do. Besides, we don’t need another animal around here, and most definitely not a dog.”

When Todd McCray, a developmentally challenged young man still living on his parents’ Kansas farm, hears that a local animal shelter is seeking temporary homes for its dogs during the days leading to Christmas, he knows exactly what he wants for the holidays. His father objects, but Todd’s persistence quickly wins out. Soon the McCrays are the short-term foster family for a lovable pooch the young man names Christmas.

But what about all the other dogs who will be forced to spend the Yuletide season in cages? In the days that follow, Todd uses his special gifts of persuasion to encourage his hometown to participate in the “Adopt a Dog for Christmas Program.” What follows from his small act of kindness will teach his family, and his community, about peace on earth and good will toward men—and animals."

Je ne sais pas si le livre a été traduit, mais ça semble être une vraie histoire pour le Temps des Fêtes.

Merci pour le tuyeau: je cherchais justement un livre pour mon ado qui adore les chiens et les chevaux. Je vais regarder ça: ça va la changer des livres sur le comportement que moi je lis.
