Harvey comes home  Cover Image Book Book

Harvey comes home / by Colleen Nelson ; illustrations by Tara Anderson.

Nelson, Colleen (author.). Anderson, Tara (illustrator.).

Summary:

A dog's world is a world of scents, of adventure. When a runaway West Highland Terrier named Harvey wanders out of his old life guided only by his nose and his heart, lives begin to converge. Austin, a young volunteer at Brayside retirement home, quickly finds that the audacious Harvey inspires Mr. Pickering, a bitter resident coping with memory loss, to tell stories of his childhood. Moved by the elderly man's Dust Bowl recollections of grinding poverty and the perseverance of his friends and family, Austin begins to trade his preconceived notions for empathy. But is it enough to give him the resolve to track down Harvey's original owner?
