Little-A Picks Lefty

Book excerpt: In a classic tale of a boy and his dog, this is the heartwarming story of Little-A and his pup, Lefty. But Little-A is not your average six-year-old, and Lefty is not your typical dog. They share similar physical challenges?and so much more. Set in lower Delaware, on an estate that is as picturesque as it is serene, boy and dog are united with the help of the Old Serge, a retired veteran and owner of the estate. Although the Old Serge is an expert with children, a revered father, and adored grandfather, well loved and respected by the wonderful family members we meet throughout the story, he has never come across anything quite like what he sees unfold between Little-A and Lefty. The bond between these two extends farther than that of any boy and dog he's ever known?and maybe even beyond the realm of human consciousness. Part mystery, part myth, this adventure explores the amazing possibilities that are present when a lot of love comes in contact with a little magic.
