Bookroo's summary
Eight-year-old Mallory McDonald is upset when her brother Max gets a dog, Champ, who quickly becomes the family favorite. With everyone focused on the new puppy, Mallory feels ignored and frustrated. As tensions rise, Mallory must navigate her feelings and find a way to regain her family's attention. Will she find a way to coexist with Champ, or will her jealousy drive a wedge between her and her family? Discover how Mallory tackles this furry dilemma and learns about love and acceptance.
From the publisher
Spunky, eight-year-old Mallory McDonald is very unhappy when her parents decide to get her older brother Max a dog. Why would her parents agree to such a thing? Dogs are smelly and bark and chew on things. Plus, they already have a perfectly good cat, Cheeseburger. When they finally get the puppy, it’s worse than Mallory imagined. Everyone loves Champ and he and Max are getting all of the attention. Poor Mallory–now everyone’s mad at her. What should she do?
