Who does not like reading a story about a dog? Banjo Is one of the sweetest stories I have ever read.
Written in a dialogue-based form, the book is inviting. It has a really good plot but the only way to get a real sense of what is going on in this tale seems to be through multiple perspectives and this was a good choice of narrative vehicle – the author provided a multi-dimensional, layered quality to the central conflict, and everything developed through dialogues. And, at some points, there may even be what I can call “conflict”, bringing with it appropriately bold plot paths where, for example, otherwise heroic characters take some minor wrong decisions.

Following the life of Banjo, a working dog who was abandoned, the author, Amy Sutton, delights us with this impressive fiction. During his stay at the shelter, Banjo runs into Angie, who immediately welcomes him.
To begin with, right from the beginning, this book is inviting, the cover is captivating and makes the reader want to know more about the characters.
With the strategically selected words, author Amy makes this work an adorable fiction, with a unique plot. I have always been a lover of movies or books whose characters are animals, specifically dogs, and I must admit that this story touched my heart. I hope I can read more fiction of this type.

As a dog lover, as soon as I saw the title and cover of this book, I knew it would be engraved in my heart; let me say I was absolutely right.
It’s a well written, entertaining book about an abandoned canine that changed everyone’s life in a town, especially Angie’s destiny. What I liked the most about the title is that Banjo teaches invaluable lessons and drives the reader to do things in the best possible way.
I wouldn’t say it was a real tear jerker but it had some emotional moments. I highly recommend it for people who like this type of books or anyone who enjoys in-depth storytelling with a large cast of characters and pets.

This is a very predictable story. There are too many conversations and not much of a storyline
