A Dog's Purpose: Bailey's Story

Written by W. Bruce Cameron
When Bailey meets eight-year-old Ethan, he quickly figures out his purpose: to play with the boy, to explore the farm during summers with the boy. But Bailey soon learns that life isn't always so simple, that sometimes bad things happen, and that there can be no greater purpose than to protect the boy he loves.
