And afraid that her mom might never come back. Thinking a change of scenery might be a helpful distraction, Jessie's dad moves them to a small town in southern Minnesota. There, Jessie meets two new friends: Oscar, a thoughtful boy whose brother just returned from fighting in Afghanistan; and Nicky, a goofy theater kid who constantly cracks jokes. Together, the three kids stumble upon an old barn with the sound of terrified dogs coming from inside. Wanting to be brave like her mom, Jessie breaks into the barn and discovers a puppy mill where dozens of dogs are being neglected. While she can't save all the dogs, she can save one. She carts the dog home in a rickety red wheelbarrow. But hiding a stolen dog from Dad and Grandpa causes more problems than Jessie anticipated. As more time passes, keeping the dog hidden becomes increasingly difficult. In the end, Jessie learns what it means to be brave and that sometimes helping others is the best way to heal yourself"-- $c Provided by publisher. 521 1 $a Ages 8-12+. 541 $d 20230930. 650 1 $a Children of military personnel $z United States $v Juvenile fiction. 650 7 $a Families $v Juvenile Fiction. 650 $a Courage $v Juvenile fiction. 650 $a Fear $v Juvenile fiction. 650 $a Puppies $v Juvenile fiction. 650 $a Animal rescue $v Juvenile fiction. 651 1 $a Minnesota $v Juvenile Fiction. 941 $a 1 952 $l VTPD454 $d 20231115010627.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=ADE23966838411EEB9779CCC3AECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
