From the Newbery Honor-winning and #1 New York Times bestselling author of A Rover's Story comes the moving story of a cheetah who forms a friendship with a rescue dog–a bond that will change their lives forever. Perfect for fans of Katherine Applegate and Rosanne Parry.
Finnegan is a rescue dog with a broken heart.
Chase is an anxious cheetah cub, newly orphaned.
The two animals couldn't be more different. But one day, they are brought together for the unlikeliest of reasons: Finnegan must help Chase gain the confidence she needs to perform as part of an educational program for children at a zoo.
Finnegan and Chase have each suffered losses and have trouble trusting. Yet somehow, they are just what the other needs. But if Finnegan isn’t able to help Chase overcome her fears, he won’t just be letting Chase down–he could be risking his new home as well.
Inspired by true stories from zoos across the country, Newbery Honor-winning author Jasmine Warga creates a deeply moving tale about how the power of friendship can transcend anything – even species.
