Ellen Cooney author of The Mountaintop School for Dogs And Other Second Chances

“Is there such a thing as a Rescue Book? Well, there is now. This is a miracle of a book. It’s even a spiritual handbook. And it is for readers young and old and all of the in-between. Cooney is such a wise genius of a writer, and her sentences keep surprising you, but are never the point in themselves. I read with a kind of mental breathlessness. If Cooney needs someone to convince her to write a sequel, I volunteer.”—Gail GodwinAUGUST 2014HOUGHTON MIFFLIN HARCOURTThe Avid Reader Show is sponsored by Wellington Square Bookshop in Chester County, PA.
