About the Author:
Ted Rand has collaborated with Bill Martin, Jr. and John Archambault on several successful picture books, including The Ghost-Eye Tree, Barn Dance!, and Knots on a Counting Rope.
From School Library Journal:
Grade 1-3-- A young boy with muscular dystrophy goes to a special camp where he is paired with an intelligent golden retriever who performs everyday tasks that are too difficult for the physically challenged. They are leashed together while the boy learns to give commands, and Buddy learns to obey. When they leave camp, the dog is able to help his human friend dress, attend school, shop, and play. Readers will benefit from this easy-to-read, first-person narrative of an unusual friendship that also demonstrates the desires of the handicapped to be independent and to be treated like everyone else. Graceful watercolor illustrations that emphasize the closeness between boy and dog are a perfect accompaniment to this entertaining and informative book. --Valerie F.
