"This true story shows the major role dogs like Rescue play in the lives of people with disabilities. Heartwarming and compelling, this book makes it clear why dogs truly are man's best friend"--Back cover.
Summary:
Rescue thought he'd grow up to be a Seeing Eye dog? It's the family business, after all. When he gets the news that he's better suited to being a service dog, he's worried that he's not up to the task. Then he meets
Jessica
, a girl whose life is turning out differently than the way she'd imagined it, too. Now
Jessica
needs Rescue by her side to help her accomplish everyday tasks. And it turns out that Rescue can help
Jessica
see after all: a way forward, together, one step at a time. An endnote from the authors tells more about the training and extraordinary abilities of service dogs, particularly their real-life best friend and black lab, Rescue.
