Harriet Hound

Harriet Hound is eight years old, autistic, and loves dogs. She also has a superpower: from her family’s rescue shelter, she can summon whoever’s needed to solve a problem, from clever collies to strong huskies. With lively illustrations and engaging, down-to-earth text, these three stories of foiling vegetable heists and saving carnivals will delight canine-crazy 6+ readers. * The Guardian *
