Nancy Kay: A Dog Named 647, Gebunden

Klappentext

Sometimes self-discovery begins with a leap of faith...and a runaway dog.

A Dog Named 647, a middle-grade adventure story stars 12-year-old Mia who considers her life to be an epic fail. Her dad lives three states away with his new family, school is a nightmare, and worst of all, her mom is terrified of the one thing she wants most-a dog. But everything changes when Mia locks eyes with a runaway golden retriever, her belly swollen with puppies, running from a man with a rope. Horrified and helpless, Mia watches as he drags the dog away.

Determined to find the dog, Mia and her quirky best friend launch a search that challenges their courage, tests their friendship, and uncovers a shocking truth-hundreds of dogs living in the cramped, filthy cages of a puppy mill.

It's no longer a matter of saving one dog; it's about rescuing them all. Throughout her risky adventures, Mia discovers the power of compassion and her ability to make a difference in the lives of others as well as her own.

Fans of Fearless and Because of Winn Dixie will fall in love with this coming-of-age adventure story about friendship, the messiness of family, and the strength of the human-animal bond.
