Praise for Smells Like Dog:
"Smells Like Dog is a fantastic tale in every good sense of the word. Homer's wild pursuit of his destiny is both exhilarating and soulful. Like his faithful (and talented) hound, he refuses to take no for an answer. Homer W. Pudding: my kind of hero."
-Rebecca Stead, author of First Light and When You Reach me
"If you ever wished you could find a treasure map, if you ever checked the walls of your house for hidden passages, if you ever had a dream that no one else understood, then you will love SMELLS LIKE DOG. Full of fantastic characters (eccentric adventurers, sinister and surprising villains, and one droopy but very special dog), delightful humor, and wonderful adventures, this book is a treasure. Every page made me smile."
-Sarah Beth Durst, author of Into the Wild and Out of the Wild
