Review: How to Steal a Dog by Barbara O'Connor

You should definitely read this. So much to think about. It's short and quick, but filled to the brim with life lessons. The protagonist, Georgina, fights a battle in her own head and heart between the very real survival needs of her own family and doing what she knows is right. The lessons she learns about herself, other people, and the world around her serve to remind readers that this world is full of GOOD and that how you treat people matters. This will make a great read aloud and discussion in any classroom and is a high interest book for any realistic-fiction and / or dog lover!  {Reviewer: Mrs. K}
