There is something special in the telling of this story which makes it more than just a tender account of a boy's love for his dog, and more than a tale of frontier days. Perhaps it is the combination of excellent writing and the sensitivity to human emotions that recommend it so highly and may place it on a shelf with the classics in juvenile literature. - Saturday Review of Literature
