The world's happiest and most dog-friendly superhero is here! A brand new, charming adventure for young readers.
Meet Harriet Hound. She's eight years old and loves dogs!
But Harriet has something else that makes her super ... the power to summon the dogs from her family's rescue shelter every time there’s trouble afoot.
Whether it's a carnival catastrophe, a sudden storm, or vanishing vegetables, Harriet and her best dog friends use their super special talents and problem-solving skills to save the day!
An early chapter-book with wonderful autism representation, it is also a hoot and a half. . . For those who enjoy spunky Junie B. Jones–like leads and simplesolve mysteries like Nate the Great—not to mention Puppy Patrol assistants! A must-buy for all libraries serving young children. * Booklist (starred review) *

A sprinkle of magic, a superhero in doggy pjs and a dog for every occasion are the stars in this paw-some tail. Foster writes of Harriet’s exciting life with bags of heart and a clear understanding of autism that shines through in each of the three short stories. * A Word About Books *
