Bookroo's summary

Katie's world turns upside down when her dog-hating teacher moves next door. As tensions rise, a magical wind transforms Katie into her dog, Pepper. Now, she must navigate life on four paws and find a way to change her teacher's heart about dogs. Can Katie prove that dogs aren't as bad as Mrs. Derkman thinks, or will she be stuck barking up the wrong tree? Discover the unexpected adventure that challenges perceptions and brings surprising lessons in understanding and friendship.

From the publisher

When Katie’s teacher moves in next-door, Katie can’t believe her bad luck! Nothing could be worse than your own teacher living next-door-or could it? Mrs. Derkman hates dogs, and she wants the dogs on their street to be kept on leashes at all times! Katie is furious. Then the magic wind blows, turning Katie into her own dog, Pepper. Will she be able to convince her teacher that dogs are not all bad?
