Readers who would enjoy this book: Students that enjoy the time spent with their dog and the idea of companionship with an animal. Students studying the escape of slavery would also enjoy this book.
Rating/Response: 4 – I really enjoyed this book because of the detailed art, I also liked the fact that the dog didn’t want to leave his side, it shows how much love/the connection an animal can have for their human. Great book on the escape of slavery!
