Riassunto

For animals lovers everywhere, KATIE UP AND DOWN THE HALL is the transcendent memior of a man who discovers the true meaning of family after adopting a cocker spanial puppy. Through the magnetic personality of his mischievous dog, Katie, he soon makes powerful connections with four of his down-the-hall neighbors in a downtown Manhattan high rise, just opposite the World Trade Center.

First, Katie trots into the lives of Pearl and Arthur, a warm-hearted elderly couple just a few doors down from Glenn. Later, John, a single dad, and his rambunctious young son Ryan move in and are also seduced by Katie's charms.

Here is a beautiful tale about the magic of opening your door to a neighbor, turning friendship into much more.
