From the publisher

A tornado strikes town! And Janey worries about her friends, her neighbors, and the Third Street Pet Shelter. The shelter is intact, but overflowing with animals separated from their owners and in desperate need of some help! Time for the Pet Rescue Club to pitch in! When Janey starts a blog where people can share cute pet photos and stories, she never imagined she’d receive a heartbreaking photo of a skinny, abandoned dog. She calls on her friends Lolli, Zach, and Adam to help–and that’s just the start! When these animal-loving fourth graders discover how many animals need help in their suburban hometown, they can’t just sit by and do nothing. The shelter is at capacity and supplies are running low. Can Janey, Zach, Lolli, and Adam help find more room and food for all the pets in need? And will they ever find the owner of the nameless tiny puppy found wandering through town? Quick thinking and teamwork help save the day in this story that helps teach kids emergency preparedness and shows that kids can make a difference in the world around them!
