A warm, uplifting story about a boy, his dog, and the healing power of music marks a first-time collaboration between two former Irish Children’s Laureates, Eoin Colfer and P.J.
Lynch.
Patrick has been desperate for a dog of his own for as long as he can remember, and this summer, with his father away, he longs for a canine friend more than ever. Meanwhile, in his short doggy
life, Oz has suffered at the hands of bad people. Somewhere out there, he believes, is an awesome boy—his boy. And maybe, when they find each other, Oz will learn to bark again.
Editorial Reviews
Editorial Reviews
“This quietly emotional tale is an ultimately triumphant one.” —Kirkus Reviews
“Ultimately a story about connection and trust, this offering also communicates a clear and impactfulL message, at times through cruel and upsetting moments, about animal treatment and the responsibility of pet ownership.” —Publishers Weekly
“A simply written, realistic tale with plenty of human interest. Dog lovers will find the jacket illustration irresistible.” —Booklist
“While the classic rescue story is entirely predictable, it is on point in its earnestness, tugging heartstrings at just the right beats and giving readers an unabashedly rosy ending…Fans of Martin’s A Dog’s Life will find another canine to love here.” —Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books
