I bought this book from a used book store many years ago. It is about a boy, Brion McKibben, who owns a dog, Whisper, who was abused as a puppy by his previous owner. Whisper becomes a victim of a deliberate hit and run. There is an old Indian living in the backwoods whom the majority of the town's people described as crazy and few swore he had an unholy power to heal. They all agreed to leave him alone. Brion desperately wanting his pet back went to reclusive Algonquin. He comes back, except it wasn't Whisper anymore.

This was my favorite book before I had learned about other great novels. But that doesn't mean this isn't a good read if you give it a chance. I am by no means an expert about books at all. I just know how hard it is for me to really get into stories. Reading this it had me go through many emotions of surprise, sadness, anger, and being relieved. This is a short one with only 287 pages. It was definitely a page turner for me.
