Luna Howls at the Moon

Written by: Kristin O'Donnell Tubb

First line: Most of my clients don't mind when I lick their tears away.

Why you should read this book: Luna is a therapy dog who loves her work comforting troubled kids and is anxious to earn her fifty-session pin from Therapy Dogs Worldwide, thus demonstrating her official status as a very good dog. When three of her clients run away together on a crazy mission across town, Luna knows it is her responsibility to escape with them and offer support, just as much as she knows that she could be jeopardizing her own goal by accompanying them on this spree. Luna's perspective provides young readers with a new understanding of empathy, along with tools to help them make sense of other people's struggles and behavior through a lens of unconditional love. 

Why you shouldn't read this book: You have zero tolerance for dogs.
