Average Customer Ratings:
Now in paperback, AMAZING GRACIE is a moving, funny, and inspirational canine rags-to-riches story. "Tears will stain the pages as you read about Gracie," says USA Today. The Chicago Tribune advises, "If you're short on inspiration, read Amazing Gracie." "You don't have to be obsessed with dogs to love this story" (Philadelphia Enquirer), "Two paws up" (Portland Oregonian), "humorous yet poignant" (ASPCA Animal Watch). Booklist comments that "Dog-loving teens, especially reluctant readers, will eat this up." AMAZING GRACIE was nominated as a Young Adult Choice for 2002 by The International Reading Association-proof that it's a great crossover book.
Gracie was a deaf and partially blind albino Great Dane with a delicate constitution and a penchant for small miracles. Dan is the man-sad over the loss of his last dog and trapped in a dead-end job-who adopted her. Three Dog Bakery is the burgeoning and much-publicized chain of canine bakeries that, inspired by Gracie, Dan and his friend Mark founded. A love story, AMAZING GRACIE describes how Dan saves Gracie, the loneliest pup in the litter, then how, over the next ten years, Gracie saves Dan and Mark, teaching them the real meaning of happiness. There's the moment of meeting, when Gracie gets to her feet like a clumsy foal and nuzzles Dan's nose. Gracie's romance with the pint-size Boston Terrier next door. And the eureka moment (born of Gracie's anorexia-inducing dislike for commercial dog food): Dan teaches himself to cook and within three days begins baking the dog cookies that will transform their lives. AMAZING GRACIE is a dog-lover's treat.

perfect for a dog lover -
I'm 13 yrs. old and i read Amazing Gracie over the summer. It was a great, inspiring book. I love any book with dogs in it. It was full of humor, sadness, and happiness. By the end of the book, i found myself crying. I would reccommend this book to anyone that loves dogs and wants to read a good story.

Fun and heartwarming -
My husband bought this book for me as a surprise since I was missing my American Bulldog who had died two years ago. He thought it might make me remember some of the good days with her and it did. I really enjoyed reading about Amazing Gracie and had my tissue out in case I needed it. You can't go wrong in reading this book. Enjoy!
This book is OK at best - 
After having read The Art of Racing in the Rain, this book could not compare. It was much too easy of a read, and the plot is basic. If you love love love dogs, then you will probably like this book. Otherwise, try something else.

Laugh out loud and cry softly -
The book makes you want to go out and adopt or rescue a soon to be horse like deaf puppy.It's about Dan who recently buried his best friend, his eighteen year old doggie and weeks later rescues a huge, deaf, albino puppy. She gets along well with his other roomates Mark, his business partner and friend who has two other female doggies that live with them, a dalmation and a lab mix. Gracie takes on Dottie the dalmation as her role model. When Gracie becomes anorexic, because she can't eat commercial dog food, Dan learns to bake all natural doggie cookies and Gracie loves them and he and Mark start a chain of dog bakeries. They are a wonderful family. The book shows you how life can give you lemons and how you can make very successful lemonade. It is a true story,very well written,humorous and easy to read. Funny how a dog can change your life completely in numerous ways. You'll love the life and times of Amazing Gracie.
