I read Thunder Dog by Michael Hingson with Susy Flory. It is about a blind man, Michael Hingson, and his guide dog, Roselle, and how they escaped the twin towers during September 11, 2001. It also told about his life as a child and how he managed to get around since he was blind. He learned that when he walked past things it made a different noise as he stepped on the ground. He used that method to get around. He explains to the reader that blindness is not a disability its just something you have and have to deal with. He started using guide dogs when he was 14 and has used them ever since. I enjoyed this book because I love dogs and he told stories of his dogs. I also liked when they escaped the twin towers because he described it so well and I felt I could see what was happening in my mind. It was a fun book to read. I would recommend this book to anyone that wants to learn more about September 11 and how blind people live.
