Summary
This book is the first in a series of about nine and I've liked it so much I've read all nine about 5 times. It starts out with a 60 years old Episcopal that has never been married but everything changes when a neighbor moves in and a very large dog enters his life; not to mention a very unkempt boy. A marvelous read that will uplift you and make you smile. My favorites book series by far!
