Features: This is a life story set in a small town in the southern United States. The girl Opie adopts a foolish dog named Wendick in the supermarket near her new home, who has caused a big trouble. The dog is neither beautiful nor brave, nor very intelligent, and afraid of loneliness, but what makes it unique is that it always smirks. Opie gradually overcomes her psychological barriers and begins to try to contact her mother, who has been gone for a long time, and starts making friends in the new environment. [Editor's Recommendation] This is the author's successful debut in the novel form, meticulously crafted like a finely carved work. Each chapter has its own structure, like a short story, but when combined, they accumulate greater power. The sweet and bittersweet plot is highly engaging. The story is realistic and close to life, with delicate descriptions and moving, making it a novel worth reading many times.
