"Leo is a humorous and gentle fantasy that explores the inside of a dog's psyche. The author is talented and perceptive. Her writing is fluent and graceful. I highly recommend Leo to anyone who loves dogs—and even to those who just want to read an amusing story."

"Cindy Victor has created a vivid picture of what it feels like to be a dog. By the end of the book, I wanted so badly for Leo to have the home he deserved and to know the unconditional love of a great human companion. Leo's story is a poignant, funny and creative insight into the world of a very special breed of dog—the Greyhound."
