I read this with my 8 and 11 year old and we all loved it! Such a cute story about a dog that adopts a family that is in the middle of a bit of a crisis. Ma Peachey has decided to give up mothering. She no longer wants the thankless job of cooking, cleaning and reminding the family of all they need to do and is instead going to meditate and perfect her yoga skills (a woman after my own heart). Thankfully, McTavish comes along to save the day.. Ideal for ages 6-12.

Thank you to NetGalley and Candlewick for allowing me to read an advance copy of this book. All opinions are my own.
