This story contained everything from adventure to romance and was one of the most touching I have read for a long time. It was a fast-moving story and not once did I put it down thinking I'll get back to it later. It was a delightful story of love, happiness and the life of a dog with whom one was able to share so many wonderful moments.

Wonerful! One of the best animal stories of our time!
9 April 1999
Format:Mass Market Paperback
'Only' is a heartwarming, enduring, and, at times, funny account of life, love and family as seen through the eyes (and the heart) of a dog named Only. Winston Groom uses beautiful yet simplistic language without having the need to make the dog actually talk. You feel what Only feels by his experiences and his reactions to them. Groom takes you into the heart and mind of what is truely man's best frined. The story moves quickly but without sacrificing any grace. Once you read 'Only' you'll never be able to call your dog just a "dog" again.... read this with your dog curled up next to you so he's there when you need to give him a hug.

Great Afternoon Read
18 Jan 1999
Format:Mass Market Paperback
A fantastic book that any animal lover is sure to appreciate. Can easily be read in one afternoon. A box of tissues is a prerequisite to this very touching, sometimes funny look at life through a dog's eyes.

A wonderful heartfelt story
27 Jun 1998
Format:Mass Market Paperback
A wonderful story of a dog's life. It takes a look at a pup's adventure of life to old age. Winston Groom's wonderful writing style takes you from the eyes of Only to that of those around him. A must read for all!
