(4) K-3 Photographs by Bob Carey. The soulful, devoted eyes of a friendly brown puppy introduce the theme of animal rescue. Teenage author Jackson adopts Dixie from Aunt Mary's Doghouse and writes about the experience. Close-up photos of Dixie combined with easy-to-read (though very bland) text make this book accessible.
