"Here is a tale that warms the heart from top to bottom and back again. This is storytelling in all its glory."--Kathi Appelt, author of the Newbery Honor Book The Underneath, "Newbery Honor-author Bauer ( On My Honor ) crafts distinct voices for each character and develops a strong sense of place in the close-knit town of Erthly. . . . Any child who has ever longed for a pet or tried to convince a parent to give in to a dear wish will identify with Mark."-- Publishers Weekly, American Kennel Club Responsible Dog Ownership Month American Kennel Club; http://www.akc.org/ Little Dog, Lost (Atheneum, 2012) by Newbery Honor winner Marion Dane Bauer is the heartwarming story of a boy who needs a dog, and a dog who needs a boy--a match made in heaven if only the two can meet! This touching novel in verse will captivate readers. A guide for the novel including discussion questions, simile and persuasive letter writing activities, and more is available free (http://www.mariondanebauer.com/bkpages/bk_littledog.html). Grades 3-7. SLM, September 2012, "Written in poetry form, this title is a wonderful story for dog lovers and those who like a little mystery--the reader does not find out until the end of the book how each character's story relates others. This is perfect for a read-aloud or to read alone." - --Library Media Connection , October 2012, * "The rapid, immediate free verse will grab readers with first the longing and loneliness and then, on contrast, the boy and dog in bliss. Great for sharing with pet lovers."-- Booklist , starred review, "Written in poetry form, this title is a wonderful story for dog lovers and those who like a little mystery-the reader does not find out until the end of the book how each character's story relates others. This is perfect for a read-aloud or to read alone." - --Library Media Connection , October 2012, "Newbery Honor-author Bauer ( On My Honor ) crafts distinct voices for each character and develops a strong sense of place in the close-knit town of Erthly. . .. Any child who has ever longed for a pet or tried to convince a parent to give in to a dear wish will identify with Mark."-- Publishers Weekly, "Marion Dane Bauer delicately showcases yearning in so many hearts, human and animal. Buddy, a female dog so named by her first owner because she was his buddy, loses one home and moves through another before emerging as a much-loved Ruby at the end. Telling the story in short poems, which highlight central characters, allows Bauer to make the story accessible to many different readers. The lines can dwell on Buddy's cute ears or the "eyes as blue as a Caribbean sea" of a lonely older man, or the wonderful dog-dominating skills of a cat named Fido. A great read-aloud." -Mary Harris Russell, Chicago Tribune, "Newbery Honorauthor Bauer ( On My Honor ) crafts distinct voices for each character and develops a strong sense of place in the close-knit town of Erthly. . . .
