Praise for No Better Friend:
"No Better Friend personifies the relationship we all aspire to
have with our dogs, and takes us on a harrowing journey to a place
and time lost in the history books. A must read for every dog or
animal lover."--Robin Hutton, author of Sgt. Reckless: America's
War Horse
Praise for No Better Friend: Young Readers Edition: "A riveting and
highly moving dog story."--Kirkus Reviews
"An enormously readable account of animal and human companionship
and survival; recommended for budding historians and fans of
survival stories."
--School Library Journal
"Exceptionally well researched and engaging... No Better Friend is
an inspiring story, and one that both dog lovers and history buffs
will embrace."--Deborah Hopkinson, BookPage
"Robert Weintraub captures the beauty and power of friendship and
loyalty between man and animal in this captivating narrative. We'd
all be lucky to have a dog like Judy by our sides in our darkest
times."
--Cate Lineberry, author of The Secret Rescue: An Untold Story of
American Nurses and Medics Behind Nazi Lines
"The most inspiring true life account I've ever read of a
human-animal bond."--Maureen Corrigan, NPR
"This is the best dog book since the uber best-selling Marley and
Me."--Linda Wilson Fuoco, Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
"Weintraub... combines a gritty war story with a warm dog story --
readers who like both will think they have gone to heaven.... Where
he truly excels, though, is in finding the human dramas, some
painful and some inspiring, that figured in Judy's saga."--Kate
Tuttle, Boston Globe
"Well-written and engaging."
--Booklist
