Books with title There Is No Dog

Meg Rosoff counts the Michael L. Printz Award, the Guardian Children's Fiction Prize, and a Carnegie Medal among her impressive accolades. Praised as a cheeky and subversive fantasy fable by Horn Book, There Is No Dog explores the question "What if God were a teenage boy?" Bob created the heavens and all the creatures on land and sea, but every time he falls in love, natural disasters on Earth follow. So imagine his dismay when he falls harder than ever for an irresistible girl named Lucy.

What if God were a teenaged boy? In the beginning, Bob created the heavens and the earth and the beasts of the field and the creatures of the sea, and twenty-five million other species (including lots of cute girls). But mostly he prefers eating junk food and leaving his dirty clothes in a heap at the side of his bed. Every time he falls in love, Earth erupts in natural disasters, and it's usually Bob's beleaguered assistant, Mr. B., who is left cleaning up the mess. So humankind is going to be very sorry indeed that Bob ever ran into a beautiful, completely irresistible girl called Lucy . . .

The most famous boy in the world is a prisoner. He's been charged with a crime that could send him to prison for the rest of his life. Languishing within the most secure juvenile facility in California--with the district attorney vowing to make an example of him--Lance must endure the daily indignities of incarcerated youth.New Camelot is fractured without him. Ricky is bereft, while Arthur feels the loss of his son with a despondency that can't be quelled. Then there's Michael, the volatile teen who helped write the proposition that will change California forever. His instability may well threaten the lives of everyone at New Camelot.As the election looms closer, Proposition 51 takes on an even greater significance in light of the pending trial. The more harshly Lance is treated within the broken justice system, the more he contemplates the wisdom of children having more adult rights. If The Child Voter Act becomes law, and fourteen-year-olds become "legal adults," might it simply allow real adults to throw more kids into prison?Whichever way the voters decide, Lance's greatest fear remains the same: will he ever rejoin the people he loves?The Lance Chronicles continue...Finalist in the 2015 Wishing Shelf Book AwardsThe Lance Chronicles:Children of the Knight (The Lance Chronicles Book 1)Running Through A Dark Place (The Lance Chronicles Book 2)There Is No Fear (The Lance Chronicles Book 3)And The Children Shall Lead (The Lance Chronicles Book 4)Once Upon A Time In America (The Lance Chronicles Book 5)Warrior Kids (standalone set within The Lance Chronicles universe)
