The book that I am reviewing today is "Denali: A Man, A Dog and the Friendship of a Lifetime" written by Ben Moon. I have been looking forward to reading this book for quite some time. Last year, Ben Moon produced a short film about Denali. I think "Denali" was the title of the film. The film was excellent, and it really demonstrated the great friendship between Ben and his dog Denali.
This book provides a lot more detail about what is mentioned in the film. Ben and Denali spent a great deal of time together traveling around and enjoying rock climbing and hiking. Ben was starting out in his photography career, and Denali was his partner on the adventure.
When he was in his late 20's, Ben was diagnosed with cancer. Throughout his battle with cancer, Denali provided friendship, and he helped to give Ben the will to get better.
A while later, Denali would get sick, and Ben would support his friend. These two had a great friendship, and Ben Moon does a terrific job of sharing the times that he spent with this friend.
I hope that you will take the time to read this book. It is a book about what it means to be a true friend.
