5.0 out of 5 stars Remembering an old friend..., March 16, 2001

This review is from: Remembering Farley (Paperback)

I am 33 years old and have read FBOFW since day one. When Farley joined the family, I was afraid that they wouldn't keep him. But every day he became more a part of the family than the day before. The days that featured Farley were the best. The day they couldn't revive him after he saved April was horrible. I am a grown man with a family of my own and I creid over the loss of this fictional dog. Even looking back now, I get teary eyed. I was so thankful when Lynn put this book out. If you only buy one FBOFW book, make it this one. You will stillbe able to watch the family grow and you will become very fond of this very important part of the Patterson family. Farley was indded a special friend and this book remembers him well.

5.0 out of 5 stars This is a must have book., February 26, 2001

This review is from: Remembering Farley (Paperback)

This book is a must have for anybody who has ever shared a life with that special dog, and then suffered their loss. Not only will you remember all the little things that you thought you had forgotten,but this collection will allow you to laugh again.

It is also a book that any fan of Lynn Johnston's simply has to have in their collection. Farley was, and still is, such an important part of this family. It is fitting that this collection of strips was assembled as a final tribute to the dog that changed the family forever.
