This outstanding fiction novel is written and illustrated by Eleanor Estes. She is a great writer for children.
This book is about a boy named Jerry Pye trying to get the dog of his dreams. It is based in Cranbury, a town in between Boston and New York in 1920’s. Jerry has a sister named Rachel, a brother named Uncle Benny, and a cat named Gracie. Jerry is 10 and in the 5th grade. He works extremely hard dusting the pews with Rachel and Uncle Benny earning $1.00 - just enough to buy his brand-new dog Ginger Pye. But then a snoopy man in a yellow hat steals Ginger on Thanksgiving Night. Will Jerry, Rachel and Uncle Benny find Ginger in time?
I recommend this book for grades 4th and up, dog lovers, and kids and adults who like good long chapter books.
