A Girl's Best Friend

By Harriet May Savitz

"The book shows how, for those who are blind, attitudes about blindness play an important part in the success of everything in life. Laurie has to work through her own attitudes about herself when others treat her differently because she is blind. ...I plan to give each of my nieces a copy of the book for Christmas. It will help the younger members of our family grow up with a better philosophy about blind people."

Great!

I found this book was really great with happy and sad moments Laurie Moss, who has been blind since birth, spends her time helping her dog, Jessie, since she's sick. She was determined not to give up on her bestfriend.
