Gizelle's Bucket List by Lauren Fern Watt
'A dog story that doesn't fail to amaze.' Miranda Hart, bestselling author of Peggy and Me 'I laughed and cried. Everyone reading this will be touched by Lauren's amazing bucket list adventures with her dog Gizelle.' James Bowen, bestselling author of A Street Cat Named Bob and The World According to Bob 'An inspirational and uplifting experience that will make you feel anything is possible.' Elle Throughout the milestones of her life, Lauren's big beautiful English mastiff Gizelle had always been there for her. She was there through the choppy waters of her first relationship, and by her side through the painful reality of her mother's addiction, and when she finally left home for New York she was there to fill up her tiny Manhattan apartment and become her enormous, pavement-hogging, snuffly best friend. So when Lauren discovered the shocking news that Gizelle had a life-threatening tumour, she designed an epic bucket list to make the absolute most of the time they had left together. Their heartwarming adventure will change her forever and provide her with the best possible lessons for her life ahead.
I am holding my dog closer to me than ever after that inspiring read.. a dog story that doesn't fail to amaze. * Miranda Hart *
I laughed and cried. Everyone reading this will be touched by Lauren's amazing bucket list adventures with her dog Gizelle. * James Bowen, author of A Street Cat Named Bob *
Told with humour and compassion, this book will also move you to tears. * Larry Levin, bestselling author of OOGY: The Dog Only a Family Could Love *
As much a story about growing up as about letting go of things that cannot be changed, Watt's book is also a reminder of the profound healing connection that can exist between humans and the pets they love. A tender, heartfelt story. * Kirkus Reviews *
Gizelle's Bucket List is an extraordinary book-wonderfully moving, beautifully written, and sure to resonate with anyone lucky enough to have loved an animal who changed her life. This one will earn a permanent spot in your library, and in your heart. * Gwen Cooper, the New York Times bestselling author of HOMER’S ODYSSEY: A Fearless Feline Tale, or How I Learned about Love and Life with a Blind Wonder Cat *
Gizelle's Bucket List is a story that will be loved by anyone who has ever loved a dog. Lauren Fern Watt poignantly captures the unique joy and heartbreak of sharing one's life with a great dog and how such a dog's love and loyalty can carry us through life's moments big and small. * Teresa Rhyne, the New York Times bestselling author of THE DOG LIVED (AND SO WILL I) *
[Gizelle's Bucket List] is funny, sad, wise and uplifting. It made me laugh; it gave me many reflective moments about not putting requirements on people or dogs; and I'm glad I wasn't reading the ending in a public place. * Ted Kerasote, author of MERLE’S DOOR: Lessons from a Freethinking Dog *
The heart of this delightful book isn't a dog, it's just that-heart. Gizelle, big-bodied, big-spirited, inconveniently big at times, is a big-hearted mastiff in declining health who uses a bucket list tour, a loving gift from her human (the author), to quietly wiggle a return gift into Lauren's own big heart. Gizelle's Bucket List is a dream (and a dog) well worth reading about. * Steve Wolf, author of COMET’S TALE: How the Dog I Rescued Saved My Life *
