Nubs: The True Story of a Mutt, a Marine & a Miracle

48 pp. | Little | November, 2009 | Trade ISBN 978-0-316-05318-1 $17.99
(4) K-3 Photographs trace the story of Major Brian Dennis, a Marine serving in Iraq, and a wild dog that Brian named Nubs. The climax of Nubs's story--trekking seventy miles across the desert to find Brian--is inspiring. At times, the text is distractingly anthropomorphized ("As the pack leader, he faced constant challenges from younger dogs wanting his job").
