Answers to Dog

Evan doesn’t seem to fit in at school or at home. He goes out of his way to avoid attention. He sits at the back of the bus, keeps his head down in class, and keeps to himself. But when a burr-covered border collie starts following him around, Evan’s simple duck-and-dodge existence becomes a lot more complicated.
Evolving from wary companions to steadfast friends, Evan and the dog run fast and far together, thwart an abusive dog breeder and the school bully, and find the courage to stand up for themselves and to open up to those who matter most. This contemporary coming-of-age novel is filled with hope and emotional complexity – a deeply satisfying read for animal lovers.
