(3) K-3 Illustrated by Marc Rosenthal. In this touching story, rambunctious Mogie fails as a service dog, at search-and-rescue work, and in the show ring. But when he wanders into a Ronald McDonald House (unnamed in the main text), he discovers his true calling as a comfort dog. Colored-in pencil and charcoal illustrations depict Mogie's exuberance and affection as he helps once-energetic young patients get their "mojo" back.
Reviewer: Betty Carter
