Description
After the sudden death of her master, Major Thorkildsen, his loyal dog friend Tassen is left alone with Mrs. Thorkildsen. Each of them copes with the tragedy in their own way: Tassen overeats treats, while Mrs. T. succumbs to drinking. However, their shared days begin to brighten as they spend time in the family library, reading together about Roald Amundsen's adventurous expedition to the South Pole and his fearless pack of dogs... Unfortunately, their peace is unexpectedly disrupted by the arrival of Mrs. T.'s son and daughter-in-law. Eager to settle into her spacious estate, they plan to move Mrs. T. to a nursing home as soon as possible. Tassen is afraid to even think about what fate they might have in store for him. But they won't give up! The unusual duo takes inspiration from Amundsen's brave pack of dogs. They decide to fight together against whatever life throws at them... Good Dogs Won't Make It to the South Pole is a witty and touching story about aging, death, friendship, and life, told from the perspective of a sometimes grumpy but mostly adorable mutt.
