Bookroo's summary

Filigree, a spirited Pomeranian, sneaks onto Paul Revere's midnight ride, determined to aid the American colonists. Despite being underestimated by other animals, only young Frances Revere believes in him. As her father embarks on a secret mission, Filigree and Frances must decide if courage can outweigh size. Can this little dog make a big difference in the fight for freedom?

From the publisher

Join Filigree, a five-pound Pomeranian, as he stows away on Paul Revere’s midnight ride in this first book of the At the Heels of History series, inspired by important events and told through the eyes, ears, and noses of dogs. Filigree may be a small puff of a Pomeranian but he has a big, brave heart. As the Revere family dog, he’s ready to do his part to help the American colonists stand up to the British soldiers. But the other dogs, like Jove, Sam Adams’s Newfoundland, and even the Revere cat, Anvil, think Filigree is a joke. The Reveres’ daughter Frances is the only one who believes in him. When Frances’s father, Paul Revere, leaves home on a secret mission, Filigree and Frances know they have to help, no matter how dangerous it might be. Will a pint-sized pup just be in the way, or can Filigree prove that even a very small dog can fight for freedom?
