Freckles: The Mystery of the Little White Dog in the Desert

Hardcover (AZTexts Publishing, Inc. July 15, 2003)
The story of a dog abandoned in the Arizona desert with six puppies. It tells how she kept them all alive until they were rescued by a sheriff's deputy, and how they lived in a jail cell with inmates who cared for them. A woman brings the little white dog home and soon the dog is a certified pet therapy dog working with children from backgrounds surprisingly similar to her own. A gentle, inspiring story that promotes not only a deeper appreciation for all animals, but also for each other. Includes an illustrated glossary, discussion topics, and information about pets.
