Straydog
Kathe Koja

1 set                                             Reading Level 1

        
Rachel is happiest when she’s volunteering at the animal shelter, especially after she meets the feral collie she names Grrl: they’re both angry and alone.  When a teacher encourages her to write about the dog, Rachel finds another outlet for her pain and frustration.  Writing about Grrl is easy, but teaching Grrl to trust her is a much tougher task.  When Griffin, the new boy in school, devises a plan to bring Grrl home, Rachel finds that the dog isn’t the only one who must learn to trust.
