rescue, dogs, middle-grades, illustrated

Ok,so it wasn't me who picked out the book at the Girl Scout store, but it was my ten year old granddaughter who loved it enough to let the book crazy grandma read it before she snatched it back! The publisher's blurb is pretty good. The illustrations are excellent and are of many different types of dogs that we might find in any shelter. The story line is that of a person talking to the different dogs hoping for a forever home while explaining what it means to adopt a dog. I found it every bit as exceptional as did fine granddaughter! ( )
