This book moves like poetry ...to dance with the white dog is a loving eulogy to old age itself...a tender celebration of life, made poignant by death being so close at hand. Los Angeles Times

I really hate to part with this one. It's been sitting on my shelf for a while and I don't think I'm going to reread it again. Someone else deserves to enjoy it!

This book was our book clubs choice for February. We so enjoyed the story and were drawn to it because we are all of the age of the same age as Cora and Sam. What a wonderful and caring family and friends and neighbors. Sam's desire for independence and respect hit close to home. The book is well-written with touches of humor. I highly recommend this story.
