Unwrapping Some Illustrations
The Book
This is a bittersweet story. I cannot imagine getting a pet then totally abandoning it to fend for itself. There are many other alternatives that are safe and humane to get rid of an unwanted animal.
A family gets their kids a puppy for Christmas and when they realize its a pit bull, dangerous breed they think, dad takes it into the city and lets it go. Holly finds herself on her own trying to manage life so she can survive. Many of the city folk are unwilling to help her because they too believe she is a dangerous breed.
Holly's journey of survival leads her to a city dog park, an animal shelter and finally to a pittie party. She is fortunate to find acceptance and love at that party.
The wonderful illustrations are very well done and make the text come alive. I am so thankful the story has a happy ending and Holly not only finds hope in her life but love also. I love the book and highly, highly recommend it.
