BARKING at the MOON: A Story of Life, Love, and Kibble by Tracy Beckerman is a book that you will never regret reading irrespective of being a dog-lover, dog-hater, or somewhere in between. The book is a journey that I enjoyed thoroughly, every instance of it. Once finished, now, whenever I send some time with a family having a dog, it instantly reminds me one or the other moment of Riley that Tracy has pictured so beautifully in the book. There's a word of caution though, if you don't own a dog. This book might prompt you to adopt one. If you own one (or more) already, you will be easily and to relate many of the incidents of yours with Riley. One thing is very sure. Dogs are sensitive, emotional, and moody at the same time. Whatever is the case, this book will make you laugh, smile, think, and connect quite easily.

BARKING at the MOON: A Story of Life, Love, and Kibble by Tracy Beckerman is the book that will make you understand very well how couples owning a dog love it like their own kids. I haven't adopted a dog ever, it for that sake any pet, for a reason. I remember, recently, we visited a family owning one and there were dog furs almost everywhere, on the sofa, bed, and where not. Well, the writing style is fabulous. The author is a world-acclaimed, well-known, award-winning author, and a humour columnist. Her popular syndicated column 'LOST IN SUBURBIA' is quite popular that runs in over 400 newspapers across the United States. This is her third book. Her earlier books 'Lost In Suburbia: A Memoir' and 'Rebel Without A Minivan: Observations on Life in the 'Burbs' have been a big hit.

Tracy Beckerman has kept a prefect balance of fun and emotions in her book BARKING at the MOON: A Story of Life, Love, and Kibble. I wonder how well she kept the moments so lively, touching, and heartwarming in such a perfect manner. Her numerous honors for writing include the prestigious Writer’s Guild of America award, a CLIO, and a New York Emmy®. The evolution of this book began when Tracy Beckerman quit her job in television and shifted her home from the city to the suburbs to get enough time to raise her two young children. That's where she and her husband added a crazy dog, Riley, in the family to add more fun to the upbringing of their two toddlers. 

Riley joined the family with a bouquet of a lot of surprises for Tracy Beckerman that she had never imagined while adopting the dog. It was something beyond her expectations in every manner. The real motive of the book BARKING at the MOON: A Story of Life, Love, and Kibble by Tracy Beckerman is to give a message that there's a lot to learn in life from a dog especially 'how to stop and enjoy the ride', and the book serves it's purpose very well in that regard.
