[Two Readers in Love · Rating 4 out of 5]

Done in the style of a family photo album, this beautifully photographed true story of photojournalist's David Douglas Duncan's hunt for his dog-napped Norwich Terrier puppy is sure to enthrall dog lovers of any age. The love this family has for each other, and for Provence, comes through in every photo despite their rather harrowing experience.

Perhaps their search may seem a bit over-the-top for those who don't think much of dogs, but sure to be enjoyed by anyone who loves Norwich Terriers.
