A girl and her father(a minister)move to a new town where she doesn't know anyone. She feels lonely until a stray dog causes chaos and wins her heart. Great book about prejuding people before getting to know them and unique friendships.Once the reader starts there is enough on every page to keep them going. A short chapter book but discussions can cover several lessons. Great for starting comprehension dialogue and discussing friendship.
