The Art of Racing in the Rain

by Garth Stein

I found this book touching and funny. It is about the life of Denny Swift as seen through the eyes of his faithful dog Enzo. Denny, an aspiring race car driver, unfairly loses custody of his daughter after the death of his wife. Enzo's support and companionship helps give Denny the strength to contest the court's decision. You don't have to love dogs or even racing. This book is about relationships and what it means to love. It is a very satisfying read!
