Review: Fans of Shiloh, The One and Only Ivan, and A Dog’s Way Home will love this book. A young girl’s mother dies, and her family is falling apart. Her dad is so sad, he can’t talk about her mother. Cally (the young girl) starts to see her dead mother. When she tries to tell people, they think she is lying and making up stories. Then Cally starts to see her dead mother with a big friendly dog. Cally would desperately love to have this dog, who seems to be a stray. Her dad refuses to let her have a dog, and Cally stops talking completely. This book will make you cry and you will LOVE how the ending has a “twist” that you will not see coming!
