Bol
This book is aimed at young adults who either have dogs or are interested in computers. That represents a large proportion of the 11 to 15 year olds. Jim is an engineer who invents a small computer for a dog's collar so that the dog can understand a number of English phrases (with training) and also, by moving its head, communicate a select number of phrases. If you have seen or played any of the Wii® video games you will understand how this works. Most kids have! Although the main philosophical theme of the book is how technology can change society, the fun part is really the dogs talking to people and vice versa. The book also shows the value of individual decision making, with numerous examples from Jim, his wife, sons and daughters as they set family and personal priorities.
