** Gary Paulsen was one of the kids who slipped through the cracks, until art and dogs saved him. So are Jake, Jojo, and Jamie, all twelve-year-olds who, like Gary Paulsen, had to grow up too fast. 'You stop moving, you're done.' - Jake 'Dogs know how to love better than people.' - Jojo 'I'm surprised my pencil can take my hand where my mind would never go.' - Jamie Gary Paulsen's three poignant novellas add up to an unforgettable book.
