"The Wonder of Lost Causes" by Nick Trout

In The Wonder of Lost Causes by Nick Trout, Kate is the mom of Jasper who has Cystic Fibrosis.  Kate will do whatever needs to be done for her son.  Jasper really wants a dog; however, Kate is not sure that is a good idea for a number of reasons.  When a beaten dog comes around, Jasper claims the dog and he have a connection and are meant to be together.

I thought this book was pretty good.  Jasper and the dog, Whistler, were both great characters.  If you are looking for a heartwarming story, this is it!
(Gerard's review, 4 stars)  

Teaser from page 22:  Over my shoulder, I check in, and I'm still in the crosshairs of his focus.  Is it possible that, even without a blink or a bark, the dog is making me choose for him?
