From beloved #1 New York Times bestselling author TJ Klune comes The Stars Look Like Home, a funny and moving adventure novel about finding one’s place in the universe from the perspective of a dog.

A promise: The dog does not die in this.

As a puppy, Burke’s mother told him that dogs' lives are like the stars in the sky: An everlasting light in the darkness. And so, naturally, Burke believes he will live forever.

When he discovers the truth—that he barely has any time at all—he sets out to make the absolute most of life and all it has to offer.

Try as he might to make every day count, he’s shuffled from one place to another, from family homes to training programs.

Until, at last, he finds the man he knows he's meant to share that life with. But when they’re tragically separated, Burke, a shollie from the suburbs, is sent on an incredible journey through the wilderness, a journey that leads him to the very heart of what it means to have a place in the world, for what little time we’re here.

The Stars Look Like Home is a triumphant story about a good boy on a grand adventure to find a great life.
