(3) 4-6 Illustrated by Nathan Fox. Color by Rico Renzi and Guy Major. In this wrenching graphic novel, three stories of dogs who were active participants in wars are presented. Slightly muddy illustrations highlight the chaos and grimness of war, and the text, though sometimes dense, is overall well balanced with the art. A powerful author's note, compelling stories, and the heroism of these dogs will likely inspire and move readers. Reading list, websites.
