Bookroo's summary
Gina, a spirited wire-haired terrier, embarks on a daring escape from Siberia to the USA with her family at the Cold War's end. Unhappy in her new home, she finds solace in Victor, a friendly boxer, who helps her adjust to her unfamiliar surroundings. As Gina reminisces about her past, she begins to heal and discovers that perhaps her new life isn't so bad after all. Will Gina embrace her new world, or will the memories of Siberia hold her back? Join her on this heartwarming journey of adaptation and friendship.
From the publisher
Based on a true story of Gina, a wire-haired terrier, whose family snuck her out of Siberia and into the United States at the conclusion of the Cold War, this beautiful and thrilling tale follows Gina as her family travels by bus, train, car, plane, and minivan to her new home in New York City, where she slowly begins to believe that, just maybe, her new home isn’t so bad after all.
