Life isn't easy for the animals who live at the rescue shelter. But Sally, a yellow canary, manages to make life better for everyone she touches. This is a story of loss and of the power of love, friendship-and music to heal. Some reviews: My overall impression was that it's great. It has almost exactly the same format as The Little Prince - short vignettes that make up the complete story. And, like The Little Prince, I cried about 9 times, and borderline sobbed at the end. Every animal has a lot of heart, and it makes sense that the protagonist has the most heart of all and has the best ending of all. - D.N. Pretty awesome It is a lovely book. Just a delight. Congratulations. Really, it's wonderful. It's very much in the style of Charlotte's Web and not like most books out for kids in this age group right now - which is so nice. And Ellie LOVED it. When we first read the description of Lily, Ellie said "This girl is me Is she based on me? " She was just enthralled with the whole thing. And at the very end, she was able to see that Sally lived a meaningful, loving life and that's kind of the point of everyone's life. It is just great. GREAT I just know kids are going to love it. - J.W.

Short but powerful story for older middle-grade readers about a service dog and her handler by educator and coiner of the term "faction" (fiction based on fact) Ward (Letters Home, 2004).On her second birthday, yellow Labrador retriever Maddie was awarded to Tom Ward, a Marine Corps veteran with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis. Trained as a service dog since she was 5 weeks old, Maddie spent an additional two weeks training with Tom before they traveled to his home in North Carolina. The story details the ways Maddie assists Tom-opening the kitchen drawers and refrigerator, picking up things he has dropped, sensing when he is tired or cold, etc.-while also providing guidelines for young children on how to behave around a service dog. Through photographs and text (sometimes told from Maddie's point of view), the reader learns that a service dog should never be approached or touched when working with a handler unless the handler gives permission. Some information on the progression of ALS also emerges in the story. As fitting for a children's book, the story not only shows how Maddie helps Tom, but provides a glimpse into their life together-going to the beach, dining out, playing ball, and having a late afternoon snack. The author-Tom's spouse-also provides information on the service organization that provided them with Maddie as well as other useful links. While the text is well-written and provides important, heartfelt information, the photographs elevate this work. More than words possibly could, they convey the close relationship shared by Tom and Maddie. In addition, seeing Maddie in action clarifies how she provides various services to Tom.Affecting, insightful, and informative account of a lovely service dog and her handler.

The author of wildly popular ghost stories, Mary Downing Hahn has created a group of tales for fans of her "scary but not too scary" books. Even the stories without actual ghosts are spooky. Each tale turns something ordinary - a pigeon, a white dress, a stranger on the bus, a puppet - into a sinister link to to the supernatural. For the human characters, secrets from the past or careless behaviour in the present can lead to serious trouble. All the stories have a young person as the central character, so all will resonate with young readers who enjoy the eerie, the creepy, and the otherworldly. In a concluding note, the author talks about how she came to write ghost stories. AGES: 8 to 12 AUTHOR: Mary Downing Hahn, a former children's librarian, is the award-winning author of many popular ghost stories. Her work has won more than fifty child-voted state awards. An avid reader, traveller, and all-around arts lover, Ms. Hahn lives in Columbia, Maryland.
