About The Book
A girl searches for her lost dog and truths about her family in this heartwarming, poignant illustrated novel in verse “[s]eeded with love and hope” (School Library Journal) from Jamie Sumner, the acclaimed author of Roll with It.
Disappeared. Vanished. Vamoosed.
Glory has the best dog in the world. Roux wags his tail so hard his whole round little body shakes. He touches his nose to hers like E.T. phoning home. Roux is always there for her—but now he’s gone. And Glory is worried her daddy had something to do with it.
Daddy’s been getting into trouble since the day Glory was born. Now it’s worse than worse. As she searches all over New Orleans for her lost pup, Glory discovers some things about her city and herself. Enough to make her wonder: How do you know when to hang on to the ones you love…and when to let go?
