Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Newbery Honor Book "A hilarious, heartfelt triumph."—Kirkus Reviews (starred review) From the singular imagination of National Book Award winner M. T. Anderson comes a magical adventure about a boy and his dog—or a dog and her boy—and a forest of wonders hidden in plain sight. Clay has had his fill of home life. A global plague has brought the world to a screeching halt, and with little to look forward to but a summer of video-calling friends, vying with annoying sisters for the family computer, and tuning out his parents’ financial worries, he’s only too happy to retreat to the woods. From the moment the elegant little dog with the ornate collar appears like an apparition among the trees, Clay sees something uncanny in her. With this mysterious Elphinore as guide, he’ll glimpse ancient secrets folded all but invisibly into the forest. Each day the dog leads Clay down paths he never knew existed, deeper into the unknown. But they aren’t alone in their surreal adventures. There are traps and terrors in the woods, too, and if Clay isn’t careful, he might stray off the path and lose his way forever. Graced with evocative black-and-white illustrations by Junyi Wu, Elf Dog and Owl Head is heartfelt and exhilarating, wry and poignant, seamlessly merging the fantastic and the familiar in a tale both timely and timeless.

Download or read book The Adventures of Long Dog D Silvo written by Lori Feldberg and published by Word Alive Press. This book was released on 2016-01-30 with total page 107 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Don’t call Long Dog a wiener dog—he gets very upset! Equally upsetting for the Dachshund are his too-long ears, but sometimes they come in handy—as pontoons to help him swim and for “telescoping” up or around corners to eavesdrop on troublemakers. This underdog certainly has a nose for trouble, leading the Doggie Gang into conquering dognapping rings, thwarting jewelry heists, and saving lives, both human and animal. The yacht dogs travelling the east coast—a St. Bernard, Chihuahua, Sealyham Terrier, and even two snobby black Newfoundlands—come to view him as their heroic leader, as do Long Dog’s people, the D’Silvo family. “Anyone who claims that a diminutive little breed like the Dachshund could never display heroic qualities hasn’t read about the adventures and exploits of Long Dog and his Doggie Gang. Young readers will love the underdog who becomes hero to both man and beast!” —Janet Matthews, co-author, Chicken Soup for the Canadian Soul, Chicken Soup for the Soul O Canada: The Wonders of Winter, and Chicken Soup for the Soul: Christmas in Canada
