This review is from: TIMBUKTU, THE PERMANENT DOG (Kindle Edition)
Got kids, grandkids? No? Doesn't matter, read this well crafted short purely for your own enjoyment. And, there's enjoyment aplenty to be had seeing life through the, sometimes bewildered, always curious, eyes of Timbuktu.

Written in first person POV, narrated by the small but stalwart, mink-coated mongrel pup Timbuktu, this endearing short is as completely plotted, and resolved, as a full length novel. What I found highly impressive was Brown's knack for character, whether four or two-legged, development even though working within the confines of short fiction. Using the gift of a deft economy of words, she brings all of her players to life effortlessly, and instantly! And, even though this is short fiction, you will find a bevy of beguiling characters populating its pages.

This story is a joy, whether you read it to children, or simply read it on your own. Timbuktu will definitely entertain you, and give your spirits a lift in the process.
