Every Dog in the Neighborhood

Author: Philip C Stead

Illustrator: Matthew Cordell

When we got books from the library the last time, we did not get to this book for a while as I prioritized read the books with the medals and honors. Oh! How wrong I was. This book turned out to be one of the most enjoyable. A kid with a mission and his grandmom with a mission of her own. Dogs of all shapes, sizes and family situations. More importantly, with some really nice names – Wilbur, Orville , Thelonious, Monk , E.B . Mr. Stead beautifully blends Grandparent love with civic action.  Does the ending of the book leave room for a sequel?
