The Fast And The Furriest (2010) - Plot & Excerpts
A very cute story about a twelve year boy that hates sports. This is a hardship in his family as his sister is the queen of soccer and his Father a retired professional athlete. He enters into a dog training class with his part beagle dog. The results are funny and heart warming. I don't want to give away the story, however, it is a worthy read. I plan to add this to my class library. It will appeal to boys and girls I thought it was a good story. Some pretty funny 13 year olds. A strange dog trainer lady and a couple of parents - a little over the top.The young boy that the story is about is, Kevin, who's father is a famous Chicago Bears football player. His father does not believe a sport is a REAL sport unless it involves some kind of a ball. Kevin has a younger sister who is a socker jock. Kevin and his dog, Cromwell,a beagle mixed breed, are basically couch potatoes untill they happen to catch the last few minutes of an Dog Agility Contest on the Animal Planet. Cromwell comes to life and is glued to the screen as he watches the winning dog go through the course. It changes their lives.Besides the picture on the cover - who could resist, right? I chose this book for the title. My 13 year old grandson has talked about "The Fast and the Furious" movie, since he saw it when he was 6.
What do You think about The Fast And The Furriest (2010)?
Fun kids book. Not as funny as "Flawed Dogs" but all that hard work pays off.
