Big PB Planet applause for A Home for Dakota by Jan Zita Grover, illustrated by Nancy Lane (A Sit! Stay! Read! Series book, The Gryphon Press, 2008). The simultaneously heartbreaking and heartwarming story of a sweet Keeshond rescued from her horrible life as a puppy mill breeder dog. At her foster home with Emma, Dakota is shown kindness she'd never known before, and she begins to get better--even starting to grow fur again. And one day, a potential adoptive family comes to visit, with a little girl who has even less hair than Dakota... A beautifully illustrated story, with a "how you can help" page on puppy mills and rescue dogs. Zoom on over to your local bookstore and bring it back to your home planet today!
Welcome to PB Planet!
