            <description>Taking things in stride is not easy for Kizzy Ann, but with her border collie, Shag, stalwart at her side, she sets out to live a life as sweet as syrup on cornbread. In 1963, as Kizzy Ann prepares for her first year at an integrated school, she worries about the color of her skin, the scar running from the corner of her right eye to the tip of her smile, and whether anyone at the white school will like her. She writes letters to her new teacher in a clear, insistent voice, stating her troubles and asking questions with startling honesty. The new teacher is supportive, but not everyone feels the same, so there is a lot to write about. Her brother, James, is having a far less positive school experience than she is, and the annoying white neighbor boy wont leave her alone. But Shag, her border collie, is her refuge. Even so, opportunity clashes with obstacle. Kizzy Ann knows she and Shag could compete well in the dog trials, but will she be able to enter?</description>

            <description>The Call of the Wild is Jack Londons most popular book and is considered by many to be his best. Telling the story of Buck, a domesticated dog whose wild instincts begin to kick-in while serving as a sled dog in the treacherous Yukon. The novels tone is often dark, and despite being considered juvenile literature by some, it portrays much violence and cruelty. The Call of the Wild was followed in 1906 by White Fang with its mirroring plot of a wild wolf becoming domesticated by a miner.</description>

            <description>In this book, the author, a leading dog-blogger offers a tour of military working dogs extraordinary training, heroic accomplishments, and the lasting impacts they have on those who work with them.  People all over the world have been riveted by the story of Cairo, the Belgian Malinois who was a part of the Navy SEAL team that led the raid on Osama bin Ladens compound. A dogs natural intelligence, physical abilities, and pure loyalty contribute more to our military efforts than ever before. You dont have to be a dog lover to be fascinated by the idea that a dog, the cousin of that furry guy begging for scraps under your table, could be one of the heroes who helped execute the most vital and high-tech military mission of the new millennium.  Now the author, an editor and featured writer for one of the worlds most widely read dog blogs, tells heartwarming stories of modern soldier dogs and the amazing bonds that develop between them and their handlers. Beyond tales of training, operations, retirement, and adoption into the families of fallen soldiers, she talks to leading dog-cognition experts about why dogs like nothing more than to be on a mission with a handler they trust, no matter how deadly the IEDs they are sniffing, nor how far they must parachute or rappel from aircraft into enemy territory.  Military working dogs live for love and praise from their handlers, says Ron Aiello, president of the United States War Dogs Association and a former marine scout dog handler. The work is all a big game, and then they get that pet, that praise. They would do anything for their handler. This is an unprecedented window into the world of these adventurous, loving warriors.</description>

            <title>The capture of Cerberus &amp; the Incident of the dogs ball
            by Christie, Agatha, 1890-1976.

            <description>In 2004, a remarkable archive was unearthed at Agatha Christies family home, Greenway-- 73 of her private notebooks, filled with penciled jottings and ideas. Hidden within this literary treasure trove were two rare, never-before-published short stories, discovered by archivist John Curran and published in his book Agatha Christies secret notebooks: fifty years of mysteries in the making. The capture of Cerberus was intended to be the twelfth in her collection of Poirot stories, The labours of Hercules, but she eventually rewrote it, keeping only the title. In this first, original version, Poirot is holidaying in Geneva, trying to take his mind off the impending war. But a chance meeting with an old acquaintance leads to an investigation involving a Nazi dictator and an enormous hound ... The incident of the dogs ball,  probably written in 1933, was reworked as the novel Dumb witness (1937) with a different murderer and motive. In it, Poirot receives a letter from an elderly lady, written two months before and asking for help. Now she is dead, and Poirot is convinced that her beloved terrier Bob holds the key to her death ...--Container.</description>
