Classic children's mystery

Ginger Pye

by Eleanor Estes

Jerry Pye longs for a dog and finally gets Ginger, an intelligent puppy who quickly becomes the center of the family's life. When Ginger disappears, the search draws together neighbors, schoolchildren, and adults who discover how much the dog has connected their community. The mystery matters because the relationships around it matter even more. Humorous and heartfelt, this novel is an excellent family read for anyone who enjoys dogs, small-town clues, persistence, and the comfort of a community searching together.
