"My name is GG. And you might as well know it up front""I am a dog." The first line of this memoir only teases at the depth of wisdom shared by this big black part-lab, part-hound rescue mutt. Follow GG as she tells the tale (pun intended) of her observations on how we hoomans can find endless joy in spite of turmoil and experience great love despite tragedy.

We all know the chaos that is all too familiar in this world. Have we not all experienced a breath-stealing challenge at one time or another? Is it even possible to find joy in the midst of life's storms? Is extraordinary love a fairy tale? If extraordinary love and joy are possible, how can an ordinary girl even begin to feel such grandiose emotions? Take a walk with GG as she shares a sometimes-heartbreaking, often-comical, always-poignant view of the ultimate hooman experience. In GG's eyes, love is perfectly beautiful and always extraordinary. No matter what turmoil might be happening around you, you will find comfort as GG observes and reflects on ways we can use to discover the extraordinary love that we all seek. Her story will certainly make you giggle and maybe even shed a tear or two. And it will definitely inspire you.
