Sit. Stay ⊠oink?
Twelve-year-old Grace is desperate for a puppy. All she wants is someone to loveâand to love her back. Someone whoâll make her new stepfatherâs house feel like home.
Christmas morning, Grace springs out of bed hopeful that her dreams are about to come true. But the present that awaits her isnât soft and furry. Itâs not a puppy at allâitâs a PIG.
Grace names him Bernard and tries to make the best of the situation, even though Bernard is awful at playing fetch and walking on a leashâall the things Grace dreamed of doing with a pet. But when a good friend lands in the hospital, Grace
discovers that Bernard might have a special talent for making sick people feel better.
Can Grace convince her skeptical family to get on board with training Bernard to become a certified therapy animal? Or will she and Bernard both end up out in the cold?
