Sometimes the only thing a boy needs is a buddy. First came OLD YELLER. Then Jack Ketchum brought us RED. Now Brett Williams brings us BUDDY, a tale of a boy and a dog and a brother so full of meanness, for eleven-year old Danny James, life becomes a living hell.
I enjoyed the story up until the end. The ending left me sick. But that's a Brett Williams signature touch, so if that's what you're looking for, this story is for you.
