After losing Dandy, her family’s beloved horse, Kristine decides that she will never get close to another pet again-it’s just too heartbreaking. So when her father surprises her with a new puppy for her birthday, Kristine is furious! With a new sister on the way, who needs a wriggling, messy, noisy, yellow ball of fur to look after! But how can an animal-loving girl resist the sweet brown eyes of a puppy who just wants to be loved? In Bill Wallace’s latest novel, a girl learns to love, to lose, and to take a chance and open her heart again.
