Dog Lovers Delight
Madison Morgan is unhappy. She doesn't
understand boys and fashion, nor does she understand her friend Paige's
interest in those things. What she really wants is a dog, but Dad says no. On
top of all this, the school bully picks on her and her friend Cooper
constantly. Cooper has a dangerous secret too, and her step-dad manages
everything just a bit too much. The tale about how all this gets resolved is an
interesting mystery that puts many dogs at risk. Though the pace of the book
was a bit slow for my tastes, I would not say it was boring and I still found
it a good read. I like how the main character, Madison, expresses her thoughts
to the reader. The well-rounded characters had interesting quirks and
personalities that brighten the whole story. I would recommend this book to
others from ages twelve plus for its winding plot. Note: Parents should know
that the story contains an occasional mild swear word.
