From Newbery award-winning author Ann M. Martin comes the “autobiography” of Squirrel, a sweet, sensitive and strong dog who has spent most of her ten years as a stray. From the comfort of her new home, Squirrel fills us in on the trials and tribulations of her difficult life, from the loss of a fellow stray friend to abandonment by her mother as a pup. A child’s review on Amazon.com says: “This is a wonderful fiction for teens and adults. It is one of the best novels I have ever read. I enjoyed this book because it is very suspenseful and amazing. This book is pretty sad, but it was still an awesome book.”
Hardcover, ages 9-12.
