I had a dog once. but I also loved the pictures. They were so amazing!

Did it actually happen to you? Did you make a bad choice once and you wish you chose something else? Did you have a family, friend, or pet die and could not let it go? Denarice https://padlet.com/Denarice/u0k0jdcivdsq/wish/292453654 2018-10-13 19:16:07 UTC https://padlet.com/Denarice/u0k0jdcivdsq/wish/292453654 I loved the book. Great story. When Evan lost his dog, he had bad choices, but then he made good choices. Give people space. You don't know what they have been through.

I tried to do that once. It did not work.

Was this a life experience? Denarice https://padlet.com/Denarice/u0k0jdcivdsq/wish/292454093 2018-10-13 19:22:18 UTC https://padlet.com/Denarice/u0k0jdcivdsq/wish/292454093 Did Evan get the dog to be his new best friend? or helper? Denarice https://padlet.com/Denarice/u0k0jdcivdsq/wish/292454115 2018-10-13 19:22:38 UTC https://padlet.com/Denarice/u0k0jdcivdsq/wish/292454115 I really liked this book because I can related to the book because my dog died and he was my best friend. Denarice https://padlet.com/Denarice/u0k0jdcivdsq/wish/292454151 2018-10-13 19:23:13 UTC https://padlet.com/Denarice/u0k0jdcivdsq/wish/292454151 Evan did not want the dog at first because he did not want to lose another best friend. Denarice https://padlet.com/Denarice/u0k0jdcivdsq/wish/292454176 2018-10-13 19:23:41 UTC https://padlet.com/Denarice/u0k0jdcivdsq/wish/292454176 I think that is was a good book that the author wrote. It tells us all about lives and how we only have one life.

I had a cat for my whole life and then he just got run over. Even though there was nothing to make me happy. My baby brother tried to make me happy. And there's always someone there for you.

I want to know if you lost a special animal like me and Evan did.

You will no matter what. How did Evan's dog die? What are some things you like to write about and why? How would you react if that happened to you? Denarice https://padlet.com/Denarice/u0k0jdcivdsq/wish/292454567 2018-10-13 19:28:09 UTC https://padlet.com/Denarice/u0k0jdcivdsq/wish/292454567 Why did Evan get another dog? Denarice https://padlet.com/Denarice/u0k0jdcivdsq/wish/292454604 2018-10-13 19:28:41 UTC https://padlet.com/Denarice/u0k0jdcivdsq/wish/292454604 I think Evan was happy when he had his new dog. Denarice https://padlet.com/Denarice/u0k0jdcivdsq/wish/292454654 2018-10-13 19:29:03 UTC https://padlet.com/Denarice/u0k0jdcivdsq/wish/292454654 Is this something that happened to you and do you have a dog? Denarice https://padlet.com/Denarice/u0k0jdcivdsq/wish/292454685 2018-10-13 19:29:33 UTC https://padlet.com/Denarice/u0k0jdcivdsq/wish/292454685 So why do you want a sad book with a happy ending? Denarice https://padlet.com/Denarice/u0k0jdcivdsq/wish/292454728 2018-10-13 19:30:08 UTC https://padlet.com/Denarice/u0k0jdcivdsq/wish/292454728 I think it was a good book but when he lost his dog he wasn't as happy no more. But beside that it was a good book.

Their love, their friendship all live in you. Denarice https://padlet.com/Denarice/u0k0jdcivdsq/wish/292454835 2018-10-13 19:31:37 UTC https://padlet.com/Denarice/u0k0jdcivdsq/wish/292454835
