The Dog Who Wouldn't Be by Farley Mowat*

I finished Owls in the Family  and wanted more of Mr. Mowat's childhood adventures!  This book is written for adults/junior high/high school students.  It was as funny as Owls in the Family but focused mostly on Mutt.  It also covers a longer time span in Mr. Mowat's life.
Wonderful word choice brings humor, cleverness and vivid mental pictures.  Superb writer.
*Highly recommend.
If children are reading this or you are reading it aloud to them, there is swearing and a brief mention of a "virgin" animal.
