Coming soon:

ANYTHING BUT A DOG!

Seeking pet to suit intrepid tomboy and sister born disabled from cytomegalovirus

 

Back Cover: Lisa Saunders says “no” to daughter Jackie’s pleas for a dog, fearing it will be too rambunctious around disabled daughter Elizabeth. But she does make her a promise: “If God Himself brings a dog to our door, then you can have it.” In the meantime, the family wrestles with a series of dysfunctional pets: a flesh-eating hamster, an attack cat, killer ants and a very stinky rabbit. Then one day, it actually happens: a cold, dirty puppy shows up at their door.

But is this dog really Heaven-sent?

RIDE A HORSE NOT AN ELEVATOR, serialized in the Sentinel. Lisa leaves home--and the elevators and bullies of a big apartment complex--to spend a summer in the country at her grandparents' farm.
