Christy Meisler, Cambridge Public Library "Leo's journey with the shelter dogs beautifully demonstrates the reciprocal nature of kindness. By sharing his love and attention with the dogs, he not only helps them, but also finds joy and improvement in his own life." Christine Ziegler, Foster Dog Mom, NJ "Many of my students will see themselves in this heartwarming story as they watch a little boy adjust to living in a new country and making it his home as he learns another language. The illustrations of a variety of dogs are delightful." Mary Karen Engel, 2nd Grade Teacher
