From W. Bruce Cameron, the internationally bestselling author of A Dog's Purpose and A Dog's Way Home, comes Love, Clancy: Diary of a Good Dog, a deeply moving story with a brand-new cast of characters, including one very good dog. You've probably never met someone like Clancy. He's keeping a diary, he's falling in love, there are rivals for his affections, he lives with his best friend and his worst enemy - even taken together, these factors are maybe not that unusual, except that Clancy is a dog. His point of view is therefore perhaps...different. Told in Cameron's signature style, a tremendous cast of wonderful characters find themselves jointly and separately navigating the challenges of life, of love, and...other pets, including Clancy's "worst enemy" - one very disdainful cat. It's a lot to keep track of, especially when things start to spin hilariously out of control, but fortunately, we've got the observations of Clancy, a very good dog, who shares a valuable perspective on what is really important.FROM FORGE:THE DOG'S PURPOSE SERIES:A Dog's Purpose / A Dog's Journey / A Dog's PromiseTHE DOG'S WAY HOME SERIES:A Dog's Way Home / A Dog's CourageOTHER TITLES FROM FORGE:Love, Clancy: Diary of a Good DogA Dog's Perfect ChristmasThe Dogs of ChristmasThe Dog MasterEmory's GiftTHE RUDDY MCCAN SERIES:The Midnight Plan of the Repo Man / Repo Madness / The Midnight Dog of the Repo ManFROM STARSCAPE:THE PUPPY TALE SERIES:Ellie's Story / Bailey's Story / Molly's Story / Max's Story / Lily's Story / Shelby's Story / Toby's Story / Bella's Story / Cooper's Story / Lacey's StoryTHE LILY TO THE RESCUE SERIES:Lily to the Rescue / Lily to the Rescue: Two Little Piggies / Lily to the Rescue: The Not-So-Stinky Skunk / Lily to the Rescue: Dog Dog Goose / Lily to the Rescue: Lost Little Leopard / Lily to the Rescue: The Misfit Donkey / Lily to the Rescue: Foxes in a Fix / Lily to the Rescue: The Three Bears
