    Stephanie Faris

    Stephanie Faris knew she wanted to be an author from a very young age. In fact, her mother often told her to stop reading so much and go outside and play with the other kids. After graduating from Middle Tennessee State University, she somehow found herself working in information technology. But she never stopped writing. When she isn’t crafting fiction, Stephanie is indulging her gadget geek side by writing for online technology sites. Her work is regularly featured on the small business blogs for Intuit and Go Payment, and she is a featured columnist for SmallBizTechnology.com. She lives in Nashville with her husband.

      Children. Dogs. Cats. A perfect combination. They just go together. In PIPER MORGAN TO THE RESCUE, the latest story in the Piper Morgan series by Author Stephanie Faris, Piper has always wanted a dog. When her mother starts a new job at a rescue center, trying to find homes for homeless dogs and cats, Piper is excited. Maybe now her mother will let Piper have a dog of her own.I was hoping with every page I read that Piper would soon be the happy owner of the puppy of her dreams. And when she meets Gonzo, a little Maltese, it’s love at first sight. The perfect puppy for Piper, I thought. I could picture them together. I’m not going to give anything away, but moms and kids sometimes disagree about what the family needs.Speaking of pictures, Lucy Fleming’s black- and-white illustrations throughout the book are adorable and just right for the story. Also, at the end of each chapter the reader learns “Fur Facts” about dogs and cats. Did you know that a “Dog’s nose is so unique it could be used to identify him, like human fingerprints?” I didn’t, but I know it now, along with other interesting facts about our furry friends. Stephanie Faris has written a touching story about family, moms and daughters, friendship, and learning how to take care of your pet. This book would be a great addition to elementary school classrooms and libraries, public libraries, and your own library, of course. Highly Recommended.

    Piper Morgan to the Rescue - Stephanie Faris

    CHAPTER

    1

    I’ve always really wanted a dog of my own.

    I’ve never had one before, but I’ve always wanted one. Mom always said it wasn’t the right time, but there’s never a bad time to have a puppy in your life.

    My nanna has a cute little dog named Oreo. He’s black and white and loves to have dance parties with me. I love Oreo. I got to hang out with him all the time when we lived with Nanna for a little bit. But Mom got a new job, so I don’t get to live with Oreo anymore. We just moved into a new place in Ohio.

    My mom has worked lots of jobs. She’s worked in a circus and a school. And each time, I got to help out in my own special way too.

    Now we were going to work where doggies and kitties came when they didn’t have homes. Mom said it was called a pet rescue. She was going to help the boss, who owned lots and lots of pet places in Ohio. Mom was going to be what’s called an assistant director.

    Plus, not only did we get to go somewhere new . . . it sounded like I might be able to be around a lot of really cute animals. . . . It was another great adventure.

    I hadn’t always liked new adventures. At first I was scared about going to new places. But every time we went to a new place, I got to make new friends and have new fun experiences. I’ve performed in a circus with other kids called Little Explorers, and was a helper bee at a principal’s office. And now we were at my mom’s new job. It was summer, so I didn’t have to go to school. That was good. It meant we could work at lots of jobs all summer and then maybe get a new job near a really good school that would be my forever home.

    But first, I would be hanging out with animals. Lots and lots of animals.

    Can we keep one, please, please, please? I asked my mom on the way to the rescue shelter to meet her new boss.

    One please doesn’t get you as much as three of them. Most of the time, grown-ups don’t say yes even to three pleases, but sometimes they do. So you should always try.

    Please, please, please!

    No pets, Mom said. Not until we get settled somewhere.

    Maybe this will be our new home, I said. I like Ohio.

    I did miss Nanna, though. Nanna was two hours from here. That was a long, long way, but not too long. Mom said we could still go visit on our days off, though, which were every Sunday and sometimes Monday.

    Maybe it will be, Mom said. But we’re just helping out right now while the owner opens a new store, remember?

    I knew that, but I thought I might like this job best of all
