The Lucky Dog Rescue weekly book raffle started on November 1, 2011, and will run through January 2012.  Every week, a different animal-themed book is being raffled, from new releases to tried and true best sellers.

November 20-27 is week four. This week, the book is Garth Stein’s  bestseller The Art of Racing in the Rain, soon to be a major motion picture.

Animal lovers have hailedThe Art of Racing in the Rain as the best book of recent years.The story is told by Enzo, an aging dog who hopes to be reincarnated as a human. Enzo thinks his person, Denny, is amazing. He is an astute observer of his master's life, and has a lot of wisdom to impart, if only someone could hear him. Enzo’s loyalty and love color his observations as he watches Denny navigate some enormous life difficulties and personal tragedies.
