Category : Fiction From W. Bruce Cameron, author of the beloved bestseller and major Hollywood movie A Dogs Purpose, comes this beautifully told, charming tale that explores the unbreakable bond between us and our pets. Lucas Ray is shocked when, while attempting to rescue stray cats from an abandoned building slated for demolition, an adorable puppy jumps out of a crawl space and into his arms. Even though the apartment he shares with his mother, a disabled veteran, doesnt allow dogs, Lucas cant resist taking Bella home. Bella is inexplicably drawn to Lucas, even if she doesnt understand the necessity of games like No Barks. As it becomes more difficult to hide her rapidly growing presence from neighbours, Lucas begins to sneak Bella into the veterans hospital where he works and his mother receives treatment. There, the happy-go-lucky dog naturally brings joy and comfort where it is needed most.
