I can’t tell you how thrilled and humbled I am to say that A Dog Named Boo is now on the Sunday Times paperback best-seller list in the United Kingdom!
(It just missed being on the list last week and comes in this week at Number 10.)
Its UK title is Boo! The Underdog With a Heart of Gold and Little, Brown has done an amazing job helping Boo’s (and my) story reach so many readers!
The list is behind a pay-wall on the Sunday Times website (hence no link) – but here’s a screenshot from the electronic edition:
At this point I’m just speechless.

By Lisa Edwards
Harlequin (September 2012, hardcover)
292 pages
This book tells the story of Boo, a mischievous rescue pup who overcame a few bumps and health challenges to find his way into the lives and hearts of so many people working as a therapy dog. The book’s author, Lisa Edwards, is a professional dog trainer as well as having served as a Pet Partners Instructor and Evaluator for more than 10 years. In A Dog Named Boo, Lisa shares the journey she, Boo and her other dogs have taken with a warmth and understanding, and you’ll also find a wealth of training tips and excellent advice on making visits with a therapy dog. What is special about this book is that Lisa opens up to how powerful the human-animal bond is especially when facing life challenges. A wonderful, heartfelt read.

I can’t tell you how thrilled I am to say that A Dog Named Boo will be featured on Wisconsin Public Radio‘s Chapter A Day program.
If you’re not familiar with Chapter A Day, here’s a synopsis from WPR:
In the 1990s, publishers finally discovered what Chapter a Day listeners have known for decades — everyone loves to be read to.
Chapter a Day brings the best books to radio, read by professional radio performers who have learned to establish a bond between the writer and the listener. They are read in half-hour installments, finishing a book in ten or more readings.
The books have ranged from best-sellers such as Jacqueline Mitchard’s Deep End of the Ocean, Tom Wolfe’s Bonfire of the Vanities and Anne Tyler’s Ladder of Years, to literary gems like Howard Owens’ Littlejohn to non-fiction masterpieces like Stephen Ambrose’s Undaunted Courage and Joseph Ellis’ American Sphinx.
Listeners have enjoyed hundreds of books on Chapter a Day, catching up on the latest books while rediscovering the essential pleasure – the joy of being read to.
Once the broadcast schedule is provided to us I’ll let everyone know!
