Synopsis

This lovable new series introduces a little dog with a GIANT personality! 

Fenway is an excitable and endlessly energetic Jack Russell terrier. He lives in the city with Food Lady, Fetch Man, and—of course—his beloved short human and best-friend-in-the-world, Hattie. 

But when his family moves to the suburbs, Fenway faces a world of changes. He's pretty pleased with the huge Dog Park behind his new home, but he's not so happy about the Evil Squirrels that taunt him from the trees, the super-slippery Wicked Floor in the Eating Room, and the changes that have come over Hattie lately. Rather than playing with Fenway, she seems more interested in her new short human friend and learning to play baseball. His friends in the Dog Park next door say Hattie is outgrowing him, but that can't be right. And he's going to prove it!

Get a dog's-eye view of the world in this heartwarming, enthusiastic "tail" about two best friends.

"A fun, fresh frolic that animal-loving kids are sure to enjoy." —Publishers Weekly

"Readers will relate to Fenway’s impulsivity and delight in descriptions from his dog’s-eye view. Teachers and adults will appreciate generous sprinklings of rich vocabulary." —School Library Journal

About this title

From the Inside Flap

Fenway and his beloved short human, Hattie, are the perfect pair. She loves romping in the Dog Park, playing fetch, and eating delicious snacks as much as he does. 

But when they move from the city to the suburbs, there's bad news. While Fenway's hard at work deterring intruders and battling a slippery floor, Hattie starts changing. She hangs out in a squirrely treehouse. She plays ball without him. What could be happening?

Crushed and confused, Fenway sets out on a mission. He's going to get his Hattie back and nothing will stop him--not the Wicked Floor, not the dreaded Gate, not even a giant squirrel!

Get a dog's-eye view of the world in this hilarious and heartfelt story about two best friends who learn that big changes aren't always easy, but sometimes trying new things can get you everything you want.

From the Back Cover

For Fenway, life is a bag of treats! 

At least it was, before his family's move out of the city. Now life's more trouble than he can handle--a slippery floor, suspicious intruders, and a Dog Park with no other dogs in it. And that's not all! Instead of playing with him, his beloved Hattie starts climbing trees and fetching her own ball. 

It's a good thing Fenway is full of Great Ideas for how to get Hattie back by his side. Because he is never going to give up. Not ever!
