Nothing Wrong with a Three-Legged Dog

137 pp. | Delacorte | August, 2000 | Trade ISBN 0-385-32755-2 $$14.95
(3) 4-6 Keath, the only white kid in his class, identifies with his best friend's three-legged dog. Both are misfits, but both manage to survive. Lots of happy endings here--the dog earns a ribbon in a show for dogs with disabilities, and Keath overcomes the school bully, realizes he has friends, and comes to terms with his grandmother's stroke. This is a quick, easy, and undemanding read that's satisfying nonetheless.
