Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
From the #1 New York Times best-selling author of Max comes a heartwarming, middle grade adventure story about a rescue dog, Star, who befriends a shy boy as they hunt for lost treasure near Lake Michigan.
After her elderly owner passes away, Star--a deaf Australian shepherd--is brought to a local shelter. Star feels scared and alone--until she meets twelve-year-old Julian. After getting in trouble at school yet again, Julian volunteers at the shelter and realizes he can communicate with Star in a way that no one else can. Their bond continues to grow, and Julian and Star become inseparable. Then the unthinkable happens: Funding for the shelter dries up. The only way to save Star is to adopt her, but he has to prove that he can stay out of trouble and train a dog like Star. Will Julian and Star find a way to stay together forever?
Feeling scared and alone after her elderly owner passes away, a hearing-disabled Australian shepherd is adopted from a Michigan shelter by a twelve-year-old volunteer who becomes her inseparable companion in a search for a lost treasure they hope will provide essential funds.
