The Boy Who Talked to Dogs
When Martin McKenna was growing up in Garryowen, Ireland, in the 1970s, he felt the whole world knew him as just “that stupid boy.” Badly misunderstood by his family and teachers, Martin escaped from endless bullying by running away from home and eventually adopting—or being adopted by—six street dogs. Camping out in barns, escaping from farmers, and learning to fend for himself by caring for his new friends, Martin discovered a different kind of language, strict laws of behavior, and strange customs that defined the world of dogs. More importantly, his canine companions helped him understand the vital importance of family, courage, and self-respect—and that he wasn’t stupid afte...

Summary of Martin McKenna's The Boy Who Talked to Dogs
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 My father was a big, wild Irishman, and my mother was a German princess. They met in London when he was with the UN army, and they fell in love. They had a marriage of international proportions, like Germany marrying Ireland. #2 My father, a drinker, would visit our house and turn off all the lights. He would point at someone if they were in the room and say, What do you think this is. Shannon Airport. There’s enough lights turned on to land a plane on the roof. #3 I was so scared of my father that I would sneak into his pockets when he was asleep. I would steal his coins and buy chocolate and cigarettes with them. #4 My father was a drunk, and on bad hangover mornings, he would easily have swapped his soul for a mug of scalding hot tea. I couldn’t push the memory of his bullying roars and Mammy's screams out of my head.
