Ginger Pye

Ginger Pye

By Eleanor Estes

Ginger Pye, by Eleanor Estes, says even in the most hopeless times, there can be a sliver of good fortune. Jerry Pye wanted one of Mrs. Speedy’s newborn puppies, and he very carefully selected just the right one he wanted the most. Soon though, there was competition. There was only one night left, but he got him just in time, thanks to Sam Doody, who offered him a job. The Pye Family named him Ginger Pye. Soon though, somebody stole him. Jerry and his sister, Rachel, went around for many months, searching the entire town of Cranbury, except Wally Bullwinkle’s house. He clamed to have a very large dog that would bite them. Things seemed hopeless. The good thing was though, that many months later, Ginger Pye leaped out of Wally Bullwinkle’s backyard! Their three- year-old uncle, Bennie Pye, found him the first. I recommend this story for boys and girls, grades third to sixth.

Shelby's Story: A Dog's Way Home Tale (Dog's Purpose Puppy Tales)

By W. Bruce Cameron

Shelby's Story is about a little dog who went from being trapped in a yard, to escaping and free. She left the yard and spent weeks on the street with one of her siblings. She finds herself in a tight space when her sibling is caught and a few weeks later so is Shelby. She is adopted by a trainer/filmmaker and trained to become a movie star. She films the movie and goes back to her new home. This book was remarkable. I rated it 5 stars for all of its life lessons.

Strays Like Us

Strays Like Us

By Cecilia Galante

Lily

Strays like Us is a fun, touching, story about a girl and a dog. Fred, never Winifred, has gone to live with Margery, her guardian while her mom is in jail. Margery says to stay away from the dog next door but when Fred hears the dogs pitiful whining how can she possibly stay away? Cecilia Galante is a great author and I think that girls ages 8 through 12 would enjoy this book a lot. Strays like Us has a 3-5 grade reading level and was published in 2018. I hope that you give this book a try.

Ash Princess

Ash Princess

By Laura Sebastian

This book is about a princess that is trying to take back her kingdom. Theodosia was six when her kingdom was invaded by the Kalovaxians and her mother, the Queen of Flame and Fury, was murdered right in front of her eyes. On the same day, she became a prisoner in her own castle and was crowed the Ash Princess; as a taunt to her mother’s legacy. She suffers through ten years of humiliation from the Kaiser who loves nothing more than to make her wear a crown made of ashes. One night, the Kaiser makes her kill a prisoner who turns out to be her father to prove her loyalty. After that night, Theo has decided that she cannot simply survive in this nightmare; she needs to fight back. This book is amazing and descriptive. The way the author describes the experiences Theo goes through; it is almost like you can see her pain and fury yourself. The abuse she has to go through makes you understand her philosophy and ideology more clearly. Be warned though; this book is the first of a trilogy so if you read this and enjoy it as I did, you have to read Lady Smoke and Ember Queen.

Pumpkinheads

Pumpkinheads

By Rainbow Rowell

This is a graphic novel about two friends/co-workers at a pumpkin patch. Josie and Deja have worked together at the Succotash Hut for years. But this is the last day before they go off to college. Deja is a witty and confident girl who attracts boys and girls alike; rumor is she has dated pretty much everyone at the pumpkin patch at some point. Josie, on the other hand, is very serious and shy. On their last day, Deja encourages Josie to confess to his unrequited love; the girl who works at the Fudge Shoppe. If they can find her. Deja and Josie go on a goose hunt around the entire pumpkin patch trying to find this girl. But when Josie finds this girl; will it really be what he wanted? This book really caught my attention because of the inclusion of the LGBTQ+ character and the unusual setting. Let's be honest, how many graphic novels are there about love in a pumpkin patch? This book has an awesome plot twist at the end, so you should read it! No…don’t skip to the end of the book to find out what the plot twist is…you know who you are…
