Publisher Description
Winner of a 2020 ALA Alex Award!
A "suspenseful, atmospheric tale...punctured by a gut-punch twist" (Entertainment Weekly), A Boy and His Dog at the End of the World is a story of survival, courage and hope amid the ruins of our world.
My name's Griz. I've never been to school, I've never had friends, and in my whole life I've not met enough people to play a game of football. My parents told me how crowded the world used to be, before all the people went away. But we were never lonely on our remote island. We had each other, and our dogs.
Then the thief came.
"This unputdownable story has everything--a well-imagined post-apocalyptic world, great characters, incredible suspense, and, of course, the fierce love of some very good dogs."--Kirkus (starred review)
Customer Reviews
Tedious, but easily captures you entirely
An absolute must read/listen!!! I didn’t really know what the book was about and while listening to it I found the writing long winded and tedious at times but then I would realize how deep into the story I was when I had to stop listening. It catches you so fully and explains things so well while still allowing you to feel the things you believe you might feel if you were there in the story. Awesome, awesome read.
I cannot express how much I enjoyed this book
It was riveting and I learned so much
Wonderful
I really loved this book. There were quite a few twists that I didn’t see coming, and I enjoyed the ending.
