** spoiler alert ** 
 This book gets added to my list of favorites! I don't like dogs, or racing particularly, so this is surprising. I really enjoyed the dog, Enzo's perspective and thought his narration was hilarious. I especially liked all of the conclusions he came to about life and the meaning of certain things (why dogs don't have thumbs, what happens when you die, and the evil zebra) LOL.. to fully appreciate the things I just listed you need to read the book! At times I was bent over laughing out loud (ask my husband) and at the end of the book I sobbed... loudly. I loved Enzo and I wanted him to go to Italy! I wanted him to experience more races from the passenger seat! Death is a hard thing to accept and I think this book was great at allowing the reader to experience that loss in a way that felt real and it also showed us that sorrow can lead to happiness again.
