Description

Sam Peek's children are worried. Since that "saddest day" when Cora, his beloved wife of fifty-seven good years, died, no one knows how he will survive. How can this elderly man live alone on his farm? How can he keep driving his dilapidated truck down to the fields to care for his few rows of pecan trees? And when Sam begins telling his children about a dog as white as the pure driven snow -- that seems invisible to everyone but him -- his children think that grief and old age have finally taken their toll. But whether the dog is real or not, Sam Peek -- "one of the smartest men in the South when it comes to trees" -- outsmarts them all. Sam and the White Dog will dance from the pages of this bittersweet novel and into your heart, as they share the mystery of life, and begin together a warm and moving final rite of passage. Winner of the Southeastern Library Association's Outstanding Author Award.

This is one of the best books I have ever read. Poignant, lyrical, relatable to those of us who are aging and those of us who have cared for an aging parent. As a retired grief counselor, I highly recommend this book to professionals, older adults, caregivers, loved ones. The Southern charm of the locale, characters, language were an extra perk for this Southern born boomer. It gives amazing insight into the challenges of aging, loss, family dynamics, love. The white dog added a unique spiritual quality, and connects the beginning and end of the love story between Sam and Cora.
