What's Love Rolls In About

Publisher Summary

Healing begins with a tail wag.A heartwarming and fun middle grade series from bestselling author Erin Soderberg Downing about a unique animal sanctuary, the full-time family who live there, and the rotating stable of animal guests who will learn what it really feels like to be loved and cared for.Siblings Ruby and Henry have an unusual kind of home life compared to their friends. Their family operates an animal sanctuary with a unique collection of full-time pet residents: a pig, a dog, the world’s bossiest cat, two silly goats, and a llama who thinks he’s a human. Not to mention, Ruby and Henry’s mom is also a vet at the animal clinic in town.Let’s just say, when it comes to animals, it’s hard for Ruby and Henry’s family to say no. But a couple months ago, their parents decided that the farm is full. No additional resident farm animals. No more fosters. Of course, rules are meant to be broken…A scared puppy has just arrived at their mom’s clinic, and he’s lost mobility in his back legs because of an injury. What’s worse is that the newly named Arlo clearly knows he’s been abandoned. But with Ruby’s builder brain, Henry’s heart, and a little bit of kindness from their ragtag group of animals at the sanctuary, they might just be able to teach Arlo how to trust again.
