Luna Howls at the Moon

The award-winning author of A Dog Like Daisy returns with a moving middle grade novel from the point of view of Luna, a Labrador therapy dog who accompanies her group therapy kids when they set off on an adventure across Austin, Texas. Luna has always wanted to be a therapy dog at Therapy Dogs Worldwide. Now she's a whisker away from reaching her fifty-visit pin that will make it official. But when her "clients"-the children who visit her-are put into a therapy group, Luna's routine is upended.
Like the moon, Luna shows different faces at different times. And her clients each have different needs-Beatrice is tangled in knots of anger, Caleb rushes like a waterfall, Amelia carries fear heavy like a shadow, and Hector is quiet as a rock. To comfort the kids, Luna can be what they need her to be, but can she be everything to them all at once?When Hector doesn't show up to a session one day, the kids set off on an unexpected quest to find him.
Luna joins to keep them safe, and they must work together to almost learn the truth.* Banks Street Best Children's Books of the Year *
