Synopsis

Trevor Tower doesn't worry about being short until he is assigned dog-walking duty with Loyola Louden, the tallest person in his class. But the dogs are a wonderful distraction, and even before Trevor and Loyola vow to solve the mystery of a missing spotted dog, they are becoming good friends. In this standalone prequel to the acclaimed novel The Spotted Dog Last Seen - a New York Public Library Book for Reading and Sharing (2013) - Jessica Scott Kerrin gives readers another mystery to solve and a lost dog to find. But does the missing dog even exist?

MEDIA REVIEWS

"Funny, absorbing and touching, The Missing Dog is Spotted resonates with the riches to be found in unexpected friendships and the importance of connection, however transient it may be." National Reading Campaign

"Trevor is a sweet character, a little neurotic but ultimately good-natured, the introverted foil to many of the rambunctious boy characters that frequent middle-grade novels." National Post

"With a measured pace that allows for character development, the story unfolds in a steady, satisfying way." - Booklist
Praise for The Spotted Dog Last Seen: "Going far beyond mystery book conventions, Spotted Dog is also a well-told story of growth and self-forgiveness." - School Library Journal, starred review
