Hodge-Podge Books

I must admit I have never been one for series. I seem to like my stories all tied up in one neat package. However, I have to make an exception when it comes to the series by Peter Howe. The books about Waggit , the abandoned dog, have held me spellbound through all three volumes. The third book WAGGIT FOREVER by Peter Howe, drawings by Omar Rayyan (HarperCollins, 2020, $16.99. May 2010) finds Waggit and the other dogs in their family being forced to leave their shelter in the city park. It seems foodstuffs are becoming more and more scarce so the dogs will soon be forced to scavenge outside the safety of the large park. On the advice of a city dog group’s leader, Waggit’s group is advised to leave and journey through the dangerous city to another much larger and more remote park facility. They will be escorted in groups to avoid any contacts with the humans, particularly the dreaded dog-wardens.
