Next up. I finished my other book at lunch today and since I couldn‘t decide what should be next, I let my daughter pick from the books in my library bag 😊
She told me she read the last page because ... “I had to know, Mom.” 🙃#2019mgnovelinverse

Tamra We just got this one and the cat companion book. They look like they are going to be fun reads! (edited) 6y
Bookishgal71 @Tamra, my daughter is in a 3rd/4th grade book club and they assigned it for December. So far, it‘s lovely, but sad. I hope it gets happier. I always struggle with books about animals. (edited) 6y
Tamra @Bookishgal71 yes I hope so, I would think at this target age it wouldn‘t end on a now note. 6y

Who doesn't love a book about a dog finding a home and a boy to love her written in verse? Well I certainly do. A heartwarming story for middle grade readers. #libraryreads #readharder #readwomen
