The book Oogy is a true story, written by his new owner. Larry Levin describes Oogy as "incredibly special animal", who can change someone's life forever. The theme is the book so far is love. A quote in the book that brings the theme out is, "He comes over to me, those large dark eyes searching for something in my face, and then clambers onto the couch...He turns and gets the goopy look on his face he shows me at such moments, and I pull back just in time to avoid a big, sloppy kiss." (Levin 12-13)
I predict, that later in the book, there will be flashbacks from when the Levin family first adopted Oogy. I think that they will wonder why the dog's previous owner had abused him and what he had done wrong to deserve the abuse. I also predict that there will be flashbacks from times where the family was having a bad day and Oogy was there to help them get through it.
I am excited to continue reading this book. I am looking forward to see if any of my predictions are correct.

The novel which you chose to read is a very intense topic about abusing dogs. I was wondering if they ever did announce about his past life before his new family. This novel does sound very interesting. If you could rate this novel what would you rate it? Also who do you think would enjoy this novel?
ReplyDeleteThis book sounds very interesting! Keep reading and hopefully your predictions were correct. This book sounds like something I would also be interested in!
ReplyDeleteI hope this is an uplifting story, not the end of Marley and Me. Good use of meta cognitive skills, such as predicting. How did you find backgrounds like this? Is there options for more versions inside a template?
ReplyDeleteThis books sounds like it would be so enjoyable. I love animals and I love there stories and how they have to go through and survive some of the same things we do. I really hope that your predictions are correct. Also since I read the other comments I also hope that the story doesn't end like Marley and Me even though I loved the movie and the book, but sometimes you just need a happy ending. Right?
