A touching tale of love, loss, and the unbreakable bond between a boy and his dog. In this companion to her acclaimed novel, A Dog's Life, Ann M. Martin weaves together the parallel stories of a stray dog, a boy dealing with unspeakable loss, and another whose most ardent wish is to own a dog—and everything for a dog. Bone and his sister, Squirrel, are born as stray puppies in a shed. Left motherless, the two dogs survive together for a while, but are soon wrenched apart. Bone must now go on alone, not knowing if his sister is still alive. Charlie is a boy who has suffered a terrible loss. As he's healing with the help of his dog, another tragedy occurs. Henry's best friend has moved away, and all he has ever wanted is a dog of his own. But his parents won't let him. Everything for a Dog follows Bone, Charlie, and Henry as they navigate their very different lives, fated to intersect in surprising ways. Award-winning author Ann M. Martin has crafted a powerful, heartfelt novel perfect for anyone who has ever longed for a dog or loved one. |
